About Jo
Hi, I'm Jo! I'm a UX/UI designer & certified digital marketer based in Burlington with a background in graphic design and a passion for creating intuitive, user-friendly experiences. I love blending aesthetics with problem-solving to design meaningful digital interactions.
When I’m not working, you can find me collecting vinyl, catching live music, experimenting in the kitchen, or taking art classes to keep my creativity flowing. I also share my home with my two furry companions—Zeke, my dog, and Sammy, my cat.
I’m always excited to connect and collaborate on
new UX/UI projects!
