I am a seasoned professional with an emphasis on branding and a focus on design communications. Having worked in the field over 30 years, I know how to take a project from A to Z.
Beyond graphic design (the fun part), I also offer messaging and audience targeting when needed to make the design more effective.

Linda Riddell
We worked together on a project for a mutual client that involved print, video, and online components. It all came together beautifully and the client kept using the product for years afterward!
Jim Kupel, Crescendo Consulting
I have worked with Jodie on lots of projects - large and small - including our project that took the silver award in the Total Campaign/Brand for the New England Society for Healthcare Communications. Her work and attitude is great.
Diana Gibbs
Jodie has been a fantastic asset to our work as our "go to" graphic designer. Jodie is highly responsive, invests herself into understanding the client/organization, and delivers high quality work. We appreciate Jodie's creativity and ability to interpret our raw ideas and translate it into an exceptional marketing tool. More...

I have worked with Jodie on some complex projects, she is so creative and has great ideas to get the best product to meet our needs, but she is also a careful listener. This makes for a great relationship and outcome! Meets her deadlines and yes, she is fun to work with! Totally Recommend! More...
Describe your creative process.
It is different with every client and every job, but it always starts with an in-depth conversation about what my client is trying to achieve, and brainstorming (together) the best ways to achieve their goals.
What information do you need from a client before you can start work?
What they think they want from a designer and what they are ultimately trying to achieve.Plus prior communications they've done and a brief evaluation of the competitive landscape, if any.
What do you love most about your job?
Collaborating, solving problems, using both sides of my brain.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I believe that everything is marketing and marketing is everything, and I have thoughts on how it all works together. In order to do all of it comprehensively, I had to work for myself.
Why should our clients choose you?
I'm really good at taking complicated communications and turning them into something simple that people will want to look at, then read. Plus I'm fun to work with and very responsive.
Design Consultation
I am also available to consult with small businesses and nonprofits who have never done marketing before and point them in the right direction.
