About Design Grove

Where Strategy Meets Storytelling

Design Grove builds the quizzes, courses, websites and email follow-up behind expert-led businesses: consultants, speakers, coaches and course creators whose work runs on their name. From the first quiz to the last follow-up email, every piece works together and lives in tools you own.

Meet the Founder – Mandy Allen

“You’re the hero of the story. I’m the one drawing the map..”

I’m the Founder & Creative Director. I built Design Grove to do one thing well: build the systems that help experts turn attention into a next step. My background spans graphic design, branding, and marketing automation, allowing me to approach every project with both creative vision and structured execution.

My journey began with a passion for design and storytelling, evolving into a career dedicated to helping speakers, consultants, and entrepreneurs craft immersive brand experiences. From high-impact presentation decks to seamless automation systems, I ensure that every aspect of a brand is both visually compelling and strategically optimized.

Beyond the screen, I find inspiration in fantasy worlds, creative storytelling, and immersive experiences, whether through gaming, painting, or exploring new creative frontiers. At Design Grove, that same sense of adventure fuels every project—transforming brands into engaging, unforgettable journeys.

Building Design Grove has been like assembling my own band of adventurers. Each “Guardian” represents a key archetype of our creative process, and (spoiler) they’re all aspects of how I show up.
