ABOUT
Good design should feel like a conversation, not a transaction.
I'm Kendra Pence and before I ever sketch a concept or click through a color palette, I take time to understand what makes your vision unique. I believe great design isn't just visually striking; it strategically communicates who you are and connects meaningfully with your audience.
I'm a Full Sail University grad with a B.S. in Graphic Design and 10+ years of experience across branding, website design, layout design, and photography. My aesthetic leans toward clean minimalism, but every project gets a custom approach built around your specific goals and audience.
What truly drives me is the transformation process. Taking your ideas from concept to reality and watching them make an impact. Design isn't just about making things look good; it's about creating visual solutions that serve a purpose and tell your authentic story.
When I'm not designing, you'll find me hiking, chasing bonfires, enjoying a good beach read, hosting game nights, watching oddly satisfying rug cleaning videos, or tackling DIY house renovations. I love meeting new people and encouraging others to be the best they can be. I have a great husband, four rambunctious boys, three furry friends, and a partridge in a pear tree 🎶 (okay, maybe not the last one!).
Our Values
PURPOSEFUL CREATIVITY
We believe design should be both beautiful and functional, creating work that serves a real purpose in telling your story.
GENUINE RELATIONSHIPS
We approach every client as a person first, building connections based on trust, honesty, and mutual respect.
Why "Olive" and "Stone" ?
When choosing the name "Olive & Stone" for our design business, we intentionally selected symbols rich with meaning that would guide how we serve our clients and live out our faith.
"Olive" because it represents hope and new beginnings in Scripture, like the olive branch brought back to Noah, signifying life after the flood (Genesis 8:11). This same hope is what we strive to bring to each client's vision.
"Stone" because it represents steadfast devotion, reminding us of Mary's alabaster jar that she willingly broke to anoint Jesus (Mark 14:3). Her sacrifice wasn't just an expensive gift; it was a complete surrender of what she valued most. This inspires our commitment to offering our very best, not holding back our talents or time when you entrust us with your needs.
In our work, we embrace these truths. We're not perfect, sometimes the olive gets bruised, sometimes the stone shows cracks, but we're committed to showing up authentically for every client and every project.
At Olive & Stone, we believe good work is rooted in genuine relationships, exceptional quality, and going beyond what's expected. Whether we're crafting a brand identity, designing a website, or creating marketing materials that actually move the needle, our commitment stays the same - honest work, genuine care, every time.
