Hi, I'm Jess!

A multifaceted creative with the skills to get your message across.

Web nerd and skilled observer ready to help you put your best foot forward online.

I’m a multidisciplinary designer specializing in branding, graphic design, and web design and development.

Through both digital and print, I create cohesive brand experiences that are thoughtfully crafted to represent you and your business.

An escapee from the corporate sector, I craved the flexibility and intimacy of a one-woman shop where I could work directly with a diverse range of clients. I merge the hard-won knowledge of a veteran designer with a straightforward approach that’s always focused on user experience and my clients’ success.

Owning my own studio has allowed me to take on projects that challenge me and keep my skills fresh. I live a more balanced life now and follow my interests.

To support art organizations I believe in, I take on pro bono web design projects for them.

Since I spend long days in front of a screen, I practice martial arts in my downtime. It fuels my need for movement and helps me build discipline. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is my favorite because it doesn’t come easy to me—it’s like a physical chess match.

Running an online business also gives me the freedom to explore the world. I’ve visited 15 countries and counting (Portugal is one of my favorites).

I’m a big reader, history buff, and castle aficionado. On trips to France, Italy, Germany, Austria, and Scotland, I’ve explored many castles. If I were airdropped into the middle of some ruins, I’d be the happiest person on earth, exploring every inch.

I’ve discovered that my love of exploration seeps into my creative work. I (figuratively… okay, maybe literally) jump for joy when presented with new creative challenges. That’s why I accept branding, web, and design projects from a wide range of industries.

My passion for design, combined with advanced training from RIT, has made me a capable designer. But my intuition and business acumen—honed through years of experience—are what truly set me apart. I empower business owners through strategic and beautiful web and graphic design. If you’ve read this far, chances are you’re in the market. I’d love to hear what you’re working on.

Design work comes naturally to me. This gift coupled with my advanced training from RIT has positioned me to work at an elite level, producing masterful designs that give clients the “wow” response every time. But what truly sets me apart is my business acumen and sense of intuitiveness with people. My awareness of business principles helps me hone in on what will work and not work on a (design/development) project in terms of ROI.

What your company needs, is not only a designer or developer, but someone who truly understands the dollars and cents of every design element. This inherent marketing trait I’ve acquired over the years is priceless. A nurturer at heart, I also always come back to the question, “how is this product/design/feature” going to impact the client’s customers? This relationship-centric approach serves as the anchor that guides my contribution to every project.

Testimonials

I've tried to work with "web designers" in the past. I've not liked them. Either too left brain design oriented or too right brain technically oriented. High quality creative combined with the technical skill; those two skill sets rarely reside inside the same human.
