    I graduated from Illinois State University in 2006 with a double major in graphic design and photography and landed my first opportunity here at JOED Design as a junior designer. Over the years I’ve developed and perfected my craft along-side many major brands in the consumer packaging space. Now, 16 years later I am still here co-owning with my business partner Dave because I truly love what I do. I fully believe in the fact that great packaging for an ok product will always sell better on shelf than a great product in ok packaging. We pride ourselves on working hand in hand with our clients to achieve greatness! WE MAKE IT HAPPEN!

    Cute story. I graduated from Northern Illinois University in 1994 & joined the JOED Design team fresh from school. Flash forward 28 years later and I’m still here!

    What does that say? Did I sign a lifelong contract? Was I hypnotized? Nope. I just I love design. And that I have always enjoyed the teams I have worked with here throughout the years so why leave:) Plus working on amazing brands does not hurt either:)

    I look forward to continuing the partnerships we have developed throughout the years and all the new opportunities we can contribute and be successful with.
