Hi there!

I’m Gabrielle.

I’m Gabrielle Scarlett – but you can call me Gabs.

I’m the founder of Pixel & Ink Branded Media, and owner of Gabrielle Elizabeth Studios, LLC. I’m an academia-defector, who abandoned plans for a Ph.D after my thesis because… well… I kinda wanted to do my own thing.

From the moment I started working, as a literal 15 year old, I was amazed by what women could build entrepreneurially – and I still am.

And in 2013, I started working… for me.

I’ll spare you all the gorey details, but eleven years later, now we’re HERE.

I live just north of Edinburgh, Scotland (also a long story) with my soon-to-be-husband, and every day I work with entrepreneurs like you, who are doing the damn thing.

So take a look at my work, then let’s talk. ♥︎ I wanna chat, and see what we can build together.

I started a business because for me,

Independence isn’t optional.

 

When I say that I abandoned my plans for that doctorate because I wanted to do my own thing… that’s only half true. I did want to do my own thing – but a major contributing factor for me, was the fact that I’m diagnosed with a condition called Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. It causes a metric fuck-ton of problems, but among them are things like waking up with dislocated ribs, surprise hip dislocations, chronic pain, chronic fatigue, and brain fog. And that doesn’t even approach touching on the other co-morbid shit that it causes.

The more mornings I woke up physically unable to get out of bed, the more it sank in for me that if I had to rely on a traditional, 9-5 work schedule, with a boss, and no control over my time… whether I went into academia or not I was still going to quickly end up in deep shit. Either, deep shit from the consequences of pushing my body too hard, or deep shit with my imaginary boss for respecting my limitations, and calling in sick when I needed it (read as: multiple days a week, most weeks).

So I built a brand and a business that supports my ability to control my time, independent of office hours or corporate bullshit. And… I help other women do the same. When we’re building you an aligned brand, what we’re really doing is helping you break that cycle. We’re helping you establish yourself as an expert. We’re helping you reach the people who *need* what you do. We’re helping you work smarter. That way, you too can do what you love, from wherever you want, whenever you want (whether that’s in bed with ice on your knee, or in a café sipping a caramel latte.)

"From the moment that I reached out to Gabrielle until the end of the project I felt so lit up, seen, held, and supported. On the initial consult call I remember feeling like oh finally someone gets me and sees this vision. And seeing the vision Gabrielle did. I shared with her a journey that I had gone through during a meditation and she truly brought it to life. The only way to explain it is that it felt as though she had reached into my soul and brought it forward. I love the vibrancy, the colors, the textures, the scarab, the layout...all of it feels absolutely magnetic and magical. Gabrielle, thank you for helping bring The Queer Priestess into the world. xoxo"

"I came to Gabrielle because, after pulling my hair out for a year to make my website into something I could be proud of, it still was not generating leads. My contact form was rarely used and my Google ranking was non-existent. Pixel & Ink solved the problem by making my website mobile friendly, improving my load times, and giving me a ton of help with things like page design and SEO keywords. I've booked two clients this year just from Google search results, one for $2,500 and one for $3,000 - neither would have ever found me if I hadn't gotten help from Gabrielle!"

"Brie is incredible!! She is quick to answer my questions and give me real feedback. There are so many people out there with the mindset that “the customer is always right” and they just go with whatever you suggest.

Brie is always kind, but she tells it like it is! She is always ready and willing to give real, quality feedback that will help you design the brand you NEED.

Do not miss the opportunity to work with Brie — it will be the best decision you’ve ever made!"

"Brie made our working space a place of inspiration, flow, and encouragement, even when she knew she had to 'correct me' for lack of a better phrase. One of the biggest things I've learned is how my own personal strength and struggles are amplified in how I brand myself. I knew the moment I met her I wanted to work with her - and I'll continue to. She is literally the total package. <3"

"The tweaks and tips she gave me made everything click into place and weren’t things I would have figured out on my own - and I tried for years! And the personal attention I’ve received through DM has exceeded my expectations. It feels amazing to know I have a brand designer in my back pocket when any questions arise. If I have this much clarity before the Mastermind has even begun, I can’t wait to see what I’ll be able to create in the next few months!"

"I had a Reality Check call with Brie and came out with a new perspective on my brand. She has a creative yet process driven approach to branding which I appreciated. She gave me advice on how to solve the branding issues that I am currently experiencing and was an overall joy to speak with. She clearly is passionate about what she does and enjoys helping people. Thanks Brie for the overdue reality check!"
