Hi, I’m Jacques. I’m a designer, a thinker, and above all, a curious creator.
Growing up, I always wanted to be a problem solver, maybe a scientist or an engineer. In my way, design became that path for me. It is where I get to ask questions, build solutions, and experiment with new ways of thinking.
What sparked my passion for design was the freedom to explore, try, and go beyond what is expected. I have always been someone who thinks in different directions, not just to be different but because I believe the best ideas often come from the places we do not usually look.
At first, design helped me express how I see the world. But over time, it became a way to better understand others. It taught me to listen to different voices, learn from different values, and keep my mind open to change. That journey has helped shape me into someone who is always evolving and growing.
I do have a competitive spirit, but I have also come to value the importance of play, conversation, and collaboration. Some of my proudest moments have come from working alongside others, sharing perspectives, and learning together. Design has shown me that support and connection are not just part of the process — they are at the heart of it. The ability to create something out of nothing, visually communicate, and have someone resonate and understand is what drives my design thinking and process.
I believe there is always more to learn. Whether it is a tool, a process, or a new perspective, I stay open to growth. As the world continues to shift, so do the ways we communicate and connect. That constant change keeps me inspired and motivated to keep creating.
To me, design is not about chasing perfection. It is about making progress. It is about building things that feel intentional, thoughtful, and real. Whether I am working on branding, UI, storytelling, or something experimental, I want my work to carry meaning and reflect the world around it.
I am fueled by curiosity, passion, and a desire to create something that matters. I am still learning and evolving and am excited to see where this creative path continues to lead me.
When I'm not working, you can find me hanging out with friends, journaling, and or video editing

PROCESS
Research & Discovery:
I start by understanding the problem, the target audience, and the goals of the project. This involves market research, studying competitors, and gathering inspiration to inform the creative direction.
Ideation & Concept Development:
Based on my research, I brainstorm ideas and explore multiple creative directions. I sketch, build moodboards, and develop early concepts that align with the project’s objectives.
Design Execution:
I translate the strongest concepts into high-fidelity designs, paying close attention to detail, typography, color, and composition. I focus on creating solutions that are both visually striking and strategically effective.
Feedback & Iteration:
I present my work for review and welcome feedback from stakeholders or clients. Through an iterative pocess, I refine the design to ensure it meets both creative and functional goals.
Finalization & Delivery:
Once finalized, I prepare and deliver all necessary design assets, ensuring they are ready for production, launch, or publication. I also create any needed guidelines to maintain consistency across future uses.
Reflection:
After project completion, I take time to evaluate what worked, what could be improved, and how I can grow my skills for future projects.
