My name is Haley Harper, though I go by Harper (She/They)
I'm a multidisciplinary creative whose work sits at the intersection of hospitality, design, and community. Whether I'm developing a cocktail menu, creating nail art, designing a visual identity, or producing an event, I'm always thinking about how people experience and connect with what I make.
I specialize in craft cocktails with an emphasis on ingredient-driven concepts, storytelling, and menu development, while bringing the same intentional approach to every creative medium I work in. I'm drawn to projects that are immersive, approachable, and leave a lasting impression.
What I'm most proud of isn't any single project, but the spaces I've been able to create. Building a book club that has grown into a thriving community for local queer, alternative, and creative people, alongside producing pop-up events that showcase the talents of my peers, has been incredibly rewarding and has reinforced how powerful art and hospitality can be in bringing people together.
What sets me apart is my multidisciplinary perspective. I approach bartending like a designer, design like a storyteller, and community building like an artist. I'm endlessly curious, always teaching myself new skills, and I believe that creative disciplines are strongest when they inform one another. That mindset allows me to create work that feels cohesive, intentional, and unmistakably my own.
