My name is Jess
I don’t just design websites—I design experiences that tell your story. Hi, I’m Jess—a web designer, developer, graphic artist, and filmmaker with a passion for visual storytelling and digital design. Whether I’m coding a sleek interface, designing a logo, or building out a full marketing campaign, I approach every project with curiosity, strategy, and creativity.
I’ve worn many hats over the years—working with Fortune 500 companies, small businesses, nonprofits, and solo entrepreneurs. My journey has taken me through the worlds of frontend development, branding, marketing, UX/UI design, video production, and beyond.
With a background in Film Studies, Studio Art, and Full Stack Development, I blend technical skills with artistic vision. The result? Digital experiences that are both functional and memorable.
