Midwest-based strategic communicator, creative director, and writer, Frances Eugenia Collazo is the founder of Frances Eugenia Design and the publishing imprint Liongoat Press. Known for blending systems and story, she has built a career on the business of clarity—designing communications that feel human and hold up under pressure.

Frances began her career in New York’s creative world before moving into editorial, brand, and municipal communications. Across media, retail, real estate, and government, her through-line is the same: make complex information usable, trustworthy, and beautiful. In Cleveland Heights, she helped stand up the city’s first formal communications function, shaped public-facing workflows, and stewarded signature projects including magazine publishing, brand systems, and multi-site web work—centering residents and public trust.

As a writer and publisher, Frances creates reflection-first books for women navigating hard chapters. Titles from Liongoat Press include The Love & Letting Go Workbook and The Rage & Reckoning Workbook, with The Altar of Small Things in development. Her editorial voice—calm, honest, and quietly defiant—threads through both her studio practice and her publishing work.

Frances lives with her husband, two sons, and two opinionated dogs. She is guided by three simple beliefs: communication is public service, clarity is care, and continuity is designed.
