Lisa Hough,
Graphic Designer and Marketing Manager

Lisa Hough knows how to make things look good – whether it’s a dress she is designing, a website she is creating or a photo she gets just right. At Portland Roasting she will be making the whole company look good in her role as Graphic Designer and Marketing Specialist.
She earned her design chops with a BFA in Intermedia, with concentrations in video installation and design, from Pacific Northwest College of Art. A local fashion designer put her to work -- post-degree -- and she designed and maintained her website, created ads and, for good measure, handled some press and public relations duties.
Coffee as a source of income is a theme in Lisa’s life as several barista jobs from her teen years through her art school days helped pay her way. Lisa came calling to Portland Roasting when she saw an opportunity to use her design skills in the company’s rebranding efforts.
She says working for a company that is driven by a mission beyond the bottom line is refreshing, unique and falls in line with her personal values.
When not creating for work, she creates for pleasure, designing websites, editing videos, and doing the occasional drawing. She does a ‘ridiculous’ amount of crossword puzzles and gets out of the city to the beach and camping with her dog and partner Todd when she can.
