Flourish Foundry was created with the intention to help dreamers and doers bloom within their business.  We believe that a beautiful, functional website is essential to building a thriving online business. We know there are many (often frustrating) ways to publish a website. But, we're doing things differently. We've been there—disappointed by complex coding and steep learning curves. That’s why we created a place where you can get high-quality brand and web design in Salt Lake City and beyond.
I love working with the makers, the doers, and the visionaries — the people who turn ideas into experiences, products, and services that inspire. You’re passionate about what you do, and your brand deserves to reflect that creativity. I help translate your vision into a cohesive, polished online presence that captures the heart of your work and connects with the people you’re meant to serve.
Some businesses are about more than just the day-to-day; they’re building something that lasts. I partner with entrepreneurs who want their brand to stand the test of time, telling a story that’s authentic, strategic, and intentionally designed to support growth. Together, we create a brand identity and website that honors the heart of your business while positioning it for long-term success
You’ve done the work, you’ve taken the risks, and now it’s time for your brand to fully reflect your ambition. I work with entrepreneurs who are ready to step into a confident online presence that feels effortless, professional, and magnetic. With thoughtful design, clear strategy, and intentional details, your business can finally flourish — without the overwhelm of doing it all yourself.

I started this journey because I know firsthand how frustrating it can be taping a website together to make it look how envisioned it. I've been disappointed by developers, coding, and steep learning curves. So, I created Flourish Foundry – a creative place with high quality design, affordable for just getting started.
When I’m not behind a screen working on branding and web design for female entrepreneurs, you can find me in a yoga studio, playing with my labradoodle, or hosting girls night. Let’s create the website of your dreams, so you can spend more time doing what you love most.

At 16, I stepped into the world of marketing as a social media manager for a non-profit thrift store. I had zero experience but endless curiosity—and it felt like the most natural thing in the world
Working at Rafa, a local skincare + soap shop, I fell head over heels for small businesses (and the magic of building community around a brand).
Graduated high school, started an internship at a stationery + design studio during the height of the pandemic, and yes—filmed way too many TikToks along the way.
Between college classes, I managed email marketing, label design, print materials, and social media for a local business. That season taught me I could wear a lot of hats—and actually love it.
Landed my very first paid branding design project (and spoiler: I was hooked). More clients followed, and I realized I’d found my zone of genius.
January: Packed my bags and moved to Utah for a digital advertising agency internship.
May: Graduated college with a degree in advertising + graphic design, then went full-time at the agency.
September: Officially stepped out of the 9–5 grind and focused on my branding and web design business – Abi Gwen Designs.
This year was HARD. My fiancé was deployed for 10 months, and it wrecked me. Once he came back home, I  rebranded to Flourish Foundry. 
I  created the template shop, dialed in on my brand messaging, and launched a new website.
Got married (!!), embraced full-time entrepreneurship, and doubled down on my mission: helping visionary women feel wildly confident in their brands and websites
