Who We Are
Two women on a mission to create mental health and mental wellness resources people actually want to use.
Amanda Connolly
concept & Creative
Amanda is an award-winning designer who believes that good design has to start with great conversation. Throughout her career she’s designed both digital and physical experiences for folks who vary in age, gender, race and ability, taking great care to ensure these experiences are intuitive and inclusive.
Over the course of 2020, Amanda became very aware of the importance of the practice of journaling; how it can support mental health and help shift mindset. Solving for the problem of too many different journals for too many different things, Take Note was born.
Amanda is currently living and working in Toronto.
