Q1 Productions

Web Design & Visual Identity

Q1 Productions is a conference production company in the life science industries. I was hired on and Q1 for an in-house role to refresh their brand identity and transition much of their content from print materials to web. This involved a redesign of their logo, brand guide, website, signage etc.

Event Page Redesign

At Q1 Productions, the main design challenge was creating an individual web page for each of the dozens of events they hold annually. This needed to be succinct, clean and to communicate clearly the calls to action.

About Us redesign

I worked with the client to provide some professional photographs of the team in their work element, thus enhancing the personalization of the brand.

I have experience building informative and useful company brand guides for both internal & external use.
An editorial standards guide is also helpful for any organization that requires standardized copy writing.
The brand guide should also feature an example of external graphics.

Resume

Design experience:

View Resume

I believe that good design = good communication. 

I prioritize intuitive layouts, legible typography, and subtle color palettes to ensure every element serves a clear purpose. By stripping away the unnecessary, I create designs that are both modern and timeless, prioritizing the message we are trying to convey. I love to solve problems and perform well under pressure. I have experience in managing my own staff, working in bigger teams and also thrive in a self-starter individualized role. 

Ultimately, my aesthetic is about creating visually compelling, functional designs that communicate clearly and stand the test of time.

Art direction

As Art Director for multiple projects, I oversaw the visual direction and creative execution of all projects, ensuring they align with the company’s brand identity and objectives. With a strong eye for design, I led a creative team, collaborating closely with designers, marketers, and other departments to deliver impactful, high-quality visuals.

Visual identity

Developing a company’s visual identity involves creating a cohesive and compelling visual language that reflects the brand’s values, mission, and personality. This includes designing key elements such as the logo, color palette, typography, and imagery style, all of which work together to establish a strong, recognizable presence across various platforms.

Brand experience

Developing a company’s brand experience involves shaping every touchpoint where customers interact with the brand, ensuring a consistent, engaging, and meaningful connection.

Web & print design

With over 15 years in web and print design, I have experience working with new & emerging technologies to design websites that are both beautiful and user friendly. I also have over a decade of experience working with printers around the world to create large and small format printed materials.

Over the years and through many projects, Jessi has met every challenge she faces to create thoughtful, contemporary designs and manage and complete small and large published products. Much of what she has learned over the years has been self-taught. She is proficient in all the latest versions of the most cutting-edge design software and is always eager to learn new skills. Along with her creative abilities and technical skills, she has a talent for marketing as well.
