A Little About Me...
Hi! My name is Veronica Jurek, and I am a graphic designer, illustrator, art director, and all-around creative.
I graduated from the American Academy of Art in 2016 with a BFA in Illustration. Since then, I have worked in design and marketing in several fields; RV, Real Estate, and even Publishing. I've been lucky to have a wide range of career design opportunities, because of this I feel like I have a great hold on being flexible and creating a custom feel when working with clients and employers.
Besides design and marketing, I'm also an illustrator! You can find samples of my work in the illustration tab or on my socials under Veronica Jurek Illustration. If you would like to learn more, scroll down! Thank you.

Outside of Work...
Outside of work, I love to work on various drawings or paintings (check out the Illustration tab!) , go on walks, thrift, study astrology, and enjoy a good farmers market.
Recently, I've been getting really into fashion so you can even find me daydreaming about fun outfits from my thrift finds or crocheting another cardigan!
Otherwise, I'm home with my husband and cat enjoying time together or planning my next pop-up Art Show.
