Rosebud Designs is, as I like to tell people, a one-woman wrecking crew. You call or send an email, and you get me (Jenn). I’ve also been fortunate to have a lot of friends and amazing collaborators, so sometimes, there’s more than just me. But whether you’re dealing with just me, or a team I helm, the goal always remains the same: high-quality work, high-quality service, all served up with a smile and a dose of fun.
I’ve run Rosebud Designs since 2009 and worked with a wide variety of clients. They range from the well-known and large businesses (Miramax, Rancho La Puerta), to various non-profits large and small, to fellow creatives and vibrant small businesses.
In addition to working as a designer and nerd, I enjoy teaching and training people. I currently teach in the public relations department at the University of Southern California as an adjunct professor, specializing in design and content creation classes. I also taught front-end web development (in other words, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript/jQuery) at General Assembly in Santa Monica. I’ve also been a guest speaker for various organizations in the L.A. area, schools in the Sacramento area (including Sacramento City College and the Art Institute of Sacramento) and taught WordPress workshops.
In a previous life, I spent 10 years in the newspaper business as a sportswriter, copy editor, page designer and online producer.
In my spare time, you can find me living and dying with the fates of my favorite sports teams, particularly the USC Trojans football team and the Los Angeles Kings. I play sports, too: I’m a fairly terrible hockey player and a curler with the Hollywood Curling Club. You’ll also see me wandering around with a camera and occasionally playing instruments and writing music. I currently live in Los Angeles, and as Randy Newman put it: I love L.A.
