Amanda Luper

Applications Support Specialist working as an Information Systems Coordinator at State of Alaska | CMS, Information Systems, SharePoint Power Admin, Photographer, Communications Strategist, and AI Prompt Engineer

I’m a creative designer and artist passionate about digital innovation and over two decades of experience in web design, branding, and marketing. At 23, I launched my first venture, Wax Web Studio LLC, in Colorado, specializing in web design. Since then, my portfolio has grown to include Grizzly Bay Consulting and Ace Forty-Nine Photography. From the early days of Geocities HTML to the latest in Photoshop and modern web technologies, I’ve mastered every milestone in the evolving tech landscape.

Having worked across three states and in ten professions—from executive secretary for a Commissioner in Oregon to a corporate litigation assistant at a Fortune 500 firm—I bring a unique, well-rounded perspective to understanding the needs of businesses. I know how to craft messages that resonate with target audiences, focusing on balance, color, and appeal. As a professional photographer, I also offer headshots with each commercial package, adding a layer of value to my clients' marketing efforts.

At Grizzly Bay Consulting, I aim to help businesses navigate the digital world with creativity, strategic thinking, and personalized service.
