She specializes in typographical work for logos, film, books, and other commercial applications. Her clients include Wes Anderson, The United States Postal Service, Target, Hallmark, and Penguin Books, and her work has been featured in design and illustration annuals both in the U.S. and internationally. She’s been named a Print Magazine New Visual Artist (20 under 30), one of Forbes 30 under 30 in Art and Design, an ADC Young Gun, a “Person to Watch” by GD USA, and an Adweek “Creative 100.” In our conversation, we discuss:

    • Why most startups shouldn’t worry about their logo/brand
    • The psychology behind different typography choices
    • Balancing creativity with business needs in logo design
    • Jessica’s unique approach to pricing logo work
    • How AI is (and isn’t) impacting the design world
