Personal Branding: Giving "Hog Wild" a whole new meaning!

hogwilder

I'm a modern woman who has a lot different interests and does a lot of different things; one who embraces her femininity but doesn't use it as an excuse to not do "the heavy lifting" or get her hands dirty. I am entering a phase in my life where I am able to pursue my dreams, both professional and personal, all out! I am smart, articulate, accomplished, athletic, accessible, affable, adventurous, generous, curious, self-deprecating at times, creative, and very ambitious. In other words, I am just like so many other women. I love my children, I recycle like a rabid dog, I volunteer in my community-mostly with the homeless, I play drums, piano, paint, and pray. I meditate and procrastinate and I'd like my tummy to be just a little bit flatter than it is! The only difference between myself and (some) other women is that I simply figured out that you have to "CREATE the life you crave." My brand name comes from a combination of my last name, Wilder, and my love of the old Southern adage, "Root Hog or Die Poor." Meet me at http://www.AngelaWilder.com

2 principal target audiences:
People who are interested in creating the life they crave:those who have given up on their dreams for one reason or another. I want to instill in those that I meet the idea that life, in spite of all its challenges and seeming obstacles, can be a joyful experience.
The other audience is potential employers which include but is not limited to organizations seeking speakers, television and radio producers, casting directors, production companies, potential advertisers, and/or other people in the entertainment business to whom I am, or might in the future, pitching my television show ideas.

I will be using this logo on any and everything that represents me so it should be "timeless." Here's an example of a website and logo I really like:

Think Modern. Think Creative. Think Clean Lines. Provocative (if you can imagine that paired with the idea of a hog) is okay but not trashy. Since my target audience is adults I prefer to stay away from cartoons
(no Porky the Pig types of designs) and please don't use clip art or stock images. UNIQUE! UNIQUE!

My favorite color is purple but I'm open to the use of any color or combinations of colors.

I love pigs/hogs so feel free to work one into the design. However, a hog is not mandatory and I mean the animal kind of hog, not a motorcycle.

Lettering: I am open to upper or lower case letters and/or a combination of the two. The name is all one word. I like clean, distinct fonts not cursive or calligraphy types.

The files I will require:
print file format- .ai (CMYK)
web file format- .jpg and layered psd (RGB)
