Hi, I'm Jessica Sterling
Originally from Boston Massachusetts, I moved to Maine in 2014. With a background in digital strategy, UX design, and product innovation, I saw an opportunity to merge strategy with creativity—delivering designs that not only look beautiful but also serve a purpose. Having spent years leading cross-functional teams, optimizing user experiences, and driving digital transformations, I've set out to build a boutique studio where businesses of all sizes can access high-quality, customized design solutions.
