About
Hello there! I'm Jenn. I am a multi-faceted Graphic Designer and visual storyteller based in Los Angeles specializing in print design, branding & identity and product packaging. I've worked in the creative industry for over 20 years. First decade I was passionate about designing denim and recently shifted my attention to the Graphic Design realm. I can breathe life to any design that is engaging and bold. I enjoy working collaboratively to find the right solution to any creative problem.
My curiosity leads me to look for inspiration all around me to incorporate into my work. From street art to fine art, to nature; whether it's nostalgic vintage vibes, to clean and minimalist modern, my styles range to fit the client's need. When I am not designing, I spend time indulging in many creative crafty hobbies. Supporting mental health advocacy is particularly meaningful to me. I love running around museums & galleries, and discovering new brunch spots with a view. -
