About Me

I joined FosterAdopt Connect as Graphic Design Coordinator in May of 2022. I graduated from Missouri Western State University with a bachelor's degree in graphic design and a minor in photography. 

After college, I was offered a position at the Quincy Herald-Whig in Quincy, IL. My page designs went on to win second place in the 2022 Single Page Design Category for the Illinois Press Association. 

I have a cat named Punkin. In my free time I enjoy reading and crocheting. I have several crochet projects that are in progress!

I have my own small business, Designs by Jade. Please feel free to contact me if you need any work created!
