Creative design for
you and your brand
I work with clients in and around Hertfordshire, finding the very best creative solutions for you and your brand. I’ll use design to tell your company’s unique story, creating branding that grabs your customers’ attention and keeps hold of it. The end result? A brand personality that really wows (and works!).
About me
Over fifteen years of professional design experience
I’ve been working as a graphic designer in the creative industry for well over a decade, creating purposeful, intricate designs that attract and speak to your ideal customer. With a broad range of experience in graphic design across a whole range of agencies and clients, working with me means you can be confident your brand is in safe hands.
From creative agency to freelance designer
I went self-employed in 2018 and I love the flexibility it gives me. These days I split my time between freelance clients and design agency contracts, creating eye-catching, professional design that makes independent and medium-sized businesses really stand out from the crowd. Among my recent clients, you’ll find an opticians, a sewing studio, a spirits company, a football lookalike and even an album launch – for me, variety is brilliant!
Every element of the full design process
Over the course of my career, I’ve created all sorts of campaigns to entice my clients’ customers, taking in branding, point-of-sale, marketing, brochures, packaging, seasonal campaigns and more. I can take care of the whole process (or whichever parts of it you need me to), evolving your designs from the initial concept all the way to your final print-ready artwork.

How I work
I’m big on collaboration – whether that’s between me and my clients, or recommending and bringing in other professionals to support your project. I work with website wizards, copywriters, photographers and printers who I know and trust or, if you prefer, I’m equally happy jumping into a team you’ve set up yourself.
Whatever the setup, I’m here for you to talk to, bounce ideas off, and to give creative, print or technical advice. I can help with the planning and timelines of your project, too (if you like), and provide regular updates on progress so you always know where you stand. If I can make the creative process feel simpler for you, just ask.
Ultimately, creativity is more than just a job to me – it’s a way of life, and I thrive off helping my clients make their creative plans a reality, too. My brain is always coming up with ideas (long after the working day is over!) and it’s important to me that whoever I’m working with, they feel supported through the process and love their final designs.

How I can help
What my clients say
Jackie came highly recommended to me when I was looking to rebrand my business. From our first meeting I was confident Jackie understood my vision and desires for my brand. She was extremely helpful throughout, offering her knowledge and advice along the way to ensure my rebrand was professional but not to serious, just as I wanted it! Jackie has been extremely patient with my lack of knowledge on all things branding and went above and beyond to explain everything in simple terms for me!
Sarah - Teaching Consultant
A rebrand, new product launch and new eCommerce site seemed a lot to take on but Jackie approached this with ease. A patient and professional approach meant we felt comfortable during the entire design process and felt that all our ideas and needs were considered across all elements of the project. We’re so pleased with the final results!
Jane & Andre - Cardona & Son
Jackie’s ideas and designs were spot on from the very start and she managed to capture the cheeky personality we wanted. We both loved working with Jackie & Dan to create the website, they made the whole process feel effortless and fun.
Ray & Patsy - Cheeky Jurgen
JM Creates helped us to elevate our new business – with premium, professional branding that really sets us apart from our competitors. She not only created a brand which was a good fit for our customer demographic but she also translated my brief perfectly with a quick turnaround.
Owner - Hitchin Garden Co.
We approached Jackie for branding advice as we wanted our group to stand out and look professional within an already congested third sector space. She was amazingly helpful and knowledgeable about how we should present ourselves. Her concepts were stunning. She went above and beyond by offering her branding services free of charge as her CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) project for the year! She managed to turn around some tight deadlines – even though her day to day paid work keeps her extremely busy! She has been nothing short of outstanding in her understanding, application and delivery of every brief we sent her. Thank you!
Tony (Chairperson) - Diversity + Culture Group
Jackie was quick, courteous and very helpful. She created our branding, website design and a number of other small projects which were all to a brilliant standard. While we weren’t entirely sure what we were after, Jackie brought many great ideas to the table, most of which ended up being used in the final designs.
