Why “advisory house?”
advisory house design started as a consulting agency for cannabis brands on the dawn of state legalization. Having worked closely with cannabis brands in several states in the West, Brie took on an advisory role with her business partner to help guide cultivations on their path to retail. Navigating compliance requirements, strict city/county/state regulations, and working to normalize and destigmatize the industry, the company was named The Advisory House — an apt fit for the massive task at hand.
In 2020, Brie pivoted out of the cannabis industry, renamed the business advisory house design, and transitioned into a woman-owned creative services provider with freelance clients across the US.
Still very much passionate about leaning into best practices, advising on the current digital trends and strategies, and creating high quality brand aesthetics, her focus centers on small business owners forging their path to growth and sustainability in our digital landscape.
