Who is Hailey Day?

Meet Hailey

Heyday Creative is currently a one-woman design business, founded by Hailey Day. Hailey is an accomplished website designer, developer and graphic artist. Her 20-year career as a digital artist has spanned many industries — everything from forensic animation to wine blogs.

But no matter how many times she has said to herself well, this will be different, she always brings the same winning formula: artistic aesthetic, technical know-how, and a no-nonsense work ethic that makes her the antithesis of a flashy agency.

Originally from Silver Spring, Maryland, she now lives in Denver’s Central Park neighborhood (formerly Stapleton) with her husband (a wine writer and content strategist) and their two daughters – Varenna and Lamorra.

2020: Hunkered Down
Trying to stay positive and be thankful for family and health during an incredibly challenging year for the whole world.

2016: Battle with Cancer
Hailey’s daughter Lamorra (age 2 at the time) was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer. She underwent surgeries and chemotherapy. Today she is cancer-free.

2015: Heyday Creative’s 100^th Client!
Circuit Media claimed the 100^th client slot. We have since collaborated on many more projects together.

2010 & 2014: Motherhood
Hailey became a mother to 2 girls — Varenna and Lamorra. Being a mother is the best, yet most challenging role in the world.

2008: Heyday Creative Established
Ready for a new challenge, Hailey went off on her own. Building on her graphic design background, she learned website skills — such as HTML, CSS, and WordPress.

2005: Varenna’s Brochure
In 2005, Hailey and her husband visited the Italian town of Varenna (the inspiration for her future daughter’s name) on Lake Como and shot a photo that was later featured on the town’s travel brochure.

2001: Knott Lab
In 2001, Hailey joined Knott Laboratory — a forensic engineering and animation company that digitally reconstructs automobile accidents for litigation. Soon after, Hailey was promoted to Director of Animation.

2000: Glub’s Journey
While at college, Hailey created an animated short entitled Glub’s Journey about a lonely goldfish who travels through a sewage pipe to find his true love. Five years later, Pixar releases Finding Nemo. Coincidence?

1999: ICESat
During a summer internship with NASA, Hailey designed a logo for the ICESat satellite. Adhered to the side of the rocket, the satellite launched into space in 1999.

1997: Moves to Colorado
Hailey relocated from Maryland to Colorado, to study Art History and Filmmaking at the Colorado College in Colorado Springs.
