Hi, I’m Becca! 👋

I’m a graphic designer and creative director in central Indiana, and I live with my husband and our four boys. Between football-season work weeks and four kids’ schedules, our house runs on a plan (and a lot of coffee).

Margin & Method Co is where I make the tools we actually use: a paycheck budget that matches how we get paid, a family dashboard that keeps the calendar, meals and chores in one place, and planners designed to look as good as they work.

Everything here is designed by me, built for real family life, and private by design. Thanks for supporting a small, family-run business. It means the world.

Becca
