My name is Jessica.
It’s a pleasure to meet you!
​
I am a graphic designer currently living in the Twin Cities. I grew up in Wisconsin, and went to school at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay, where I majored in Communication Arts with a focus on Graphic Design and 2-D Art. I spent many hours in the studio there, which ignited a passion for the arts. I took photography courses, design courses, and printmaking courses, and I truly loved them all.
​
This blog is primarily about my freelance graphic design venture, Ruby July, and the ups-and-downs that come along with it. I am focused on a variety of graphic design needs, and I have a particular passion for calligraphy and designing stationery.
​
In my free time, I enjoy clicking “Yes” to Netflix’s “Are you still there?” after hours of binging the newest seasons of my favorite shows. ​I also enjoy spending time relaxing with my family in Wisconsin, or hanging out in my apartment with my pets. I spend loads of quality time with my cat, Sprinklemist Brett Favre/Aaron Rodgers, forcing her into costumes or rubbing her belly just to the verge of getting my hand bit, but (usually) succeeding in avoiding bloodshed. I also have a pretty cool turtle named Sir Reginald Gryffindor the Fifth, so I clearly have a knack for naming pets. (Unless you loathe the Packers and Harry Potter, in which case, forgive me!)
​
Join me, and come back often to see what’s happening with Ruby July and my personal journey of self-improvement.
It’s bound to be a doozy.
