My Role: Email Designer

Arian Simone, CEO and founding partner of the Fearless Fund, global entrepreneur, and Queen of Côte d’Ivoire, needed an engaging monthly recap email that captured the impact and momentum of her work. With a community of nearly 70,000 subscribers, her updates had to be visually compelling, easy to navigate, and fully aligned with her bold, purpose-driven brand. The challenge was transforming a high volume of monthly achievements into a polished email her audience would be excited to open.

Solution: I designed a clean, story-focused email using Kit, organizing the content into clear sections supported by strong visuals and bold, readable headlines. Each part of the layout guided readers through her highlights for the month, from global appearances to cultural and philanthropic milestones. The final design reflected both her elegance and her powerful leadership presence.

The email was sent to approximately 69,000 subscribers and achieved a 22% open rate, demonstrating strong engagement among a large entrepreneurial and lifestyle audience. The structure and design also created a reusable template for future recaps, helping strengthen connections across Arian’s growing community.
