WHAT OTHERS THINK
Terrence Morash
Slice
"As a creative leader, I value curiosity as much as talent when evaluating creatives. Jess is the epitome of both. An outstanding designer with a particular strength in UI design, Jess was a trusted member of the team and counted on to execute a variety of deliverables from social media content to website interfaces. Her eagerness to explore new technology and share her thoughtful evaluations with the team is impressive and often leads to projects being pushed farther. I would welcome the opportunity to work with Jess again in the future."
Zack Lewis

"Jess was instrumental to the success of our brand marketing team at GameStop. Her ability to generate highly scalable templates was a game-changer, enabling our team to handle an ever-increasing workload with remarkable efficiency and ease. Her work not only streamlined our processes but also elevated the overall quality of our creative output. She consistently raised the bar and pushed the team's work for the better.
Beyond her incredible talent as a designer, Jess is an amazing human being—a true joy to work with. Her positive attitude, collaborative spirit, and unwavering dedication had made a significant impact on our team and the broader organization."
Mark Giangiulio
The Grand Summit Hotel
"Jessica is a highly talented and innovative graphic designer with a passion for developing conceptual designs that capture the brand's image and project it to their targeted audience.

The results were outstanding. We will be using her for upcoming campaigns and web design."
