The person behind the pixels

A free spirit.
A thoughtful designer.

I’m Jessica M, a North Carolina graphic and web designer working across editorial design, websites, and boutique product presentation. Through Thread Haven Co., I develop personalized-product concepts and guide the creative direction, merchandising, and final quality review. Expressive typography, thoughtful details, and a little woodland wonder shape my approach.

My creative world

Inspired by nature.
Made with intention.

I’m drawn to expressive typography, rich botanical details, and color palettes that set a mood. A cozy woodland space, a story with a little mystery, or a thoughtfully arranged shop can all spark an idea.

That sense of atmosphere shapes my work, whether I’m designing a book jacket, arranging an exhibition publication, or creating an online boutique experience.

I’m studying graphic design and web design at Southern New Hampshire University, building on my Associate in Arts from Richmond Community College.

Skills, put into practice

What I bring to a project.

I combine an expressive visual approach with structure, clear communication, and careful production. Here’s how those skills show up in my work.

01 / Editorial & print

Give every page a purpose.

I organize imagery and content through grids, typography, hierarchy, and spacing, then prepare layouts for their final format.

  • Publication and book-jacket layouts
  • Facing-page grids and typography systems
  • Bleed, resolution, font, and color checks
  • Saddle-stitch booklet preparation

I build consistent page layouts and navigation with responsive styling, giving visitors a clear route through the content.

  • Responsive layouts and calls to action
  • Image optimization and SVG preparation
