GRAPHIC DESIGNEr & ART DIRECTOR
PROBLEM SOLVER
My approach to graphic design is practical, not precious: I am thrilled to have turned my passion into a fulfilling career. I believe that great design is as dependent on listening as it is on seeing; every project I take on begins with dialogue. Whether you need to rebrand, new website, a mailer, an annual report or a wedding invitation, my job is to listen to your ideas and help shape and refine them. You can get a feel for my design aesthetic by looking at my portfolio; I am partial to clean, minimal designs that showcase and support your message. Friendly, respectful, professional design is what you can expect. When you have feedback, I listen. I don't discriminate against small projects or modest goals. Whatever you need design to do for your business, I am here to help. In that way, I am like your family doctor—but without the shots.
After receiving my BA in Journalism and Visual Communication from UNC Chapel Hill, I I spent many years working in advertising, freelancing and eventually working as an in-house designer for a major New York-based company. I founded Jody Matthews Design in 2006, and has been inspired and energized by the demands and rewards of running a studio ever since.
