About Frances

Frances Eugenia Collazo is a strategic communicator, creative director, and writer based in the Midwest. She founded Frances Eugenia Design and the publishing imprint Liongoat Press. Her work brings together systems and storytelling, creating communications that are structured, practical, and reliable.

Frances uses a systems-first approach to communications, helping organizations shift from scattered efforts to intentional, repeatable processes. She has experience in editorial, brand, and municipal communications, working with clients in media, retail, real estate, and government. One of her key achievements was building the first formal communications department for the City of Cleveland Heights. Through Liongoat Press, Frances writes and publishes reflection-driven work. Her books—including The Love & Letting Go Workbook and The Rage & Reckoning Workbook—focus on emotional clarity, decision-making, and self-trust during difficult transitions.

Her voice is measured, direct, and grounded, and it comes through in both her communications work and her writing. She follows a clear set of principles: communication is public service, clarity is care, and continuity is designed.

Frances lives with her husband, two sons, and two opinionated dogs.

About Frances Eugenia Design

About the Studio

Frances Eugenia Design builds communication systems.

The work focuses on the structure behind the message: brand systems, templates, and workflows that reduce friction and support consistent output. For municipalities, nonprofits, and mission-driven organizations, the goal is the same: make it easier to communicate well.

Everything is designed for real-world use: clear, repeatable, and built to withstand pressure.
