Where Creativity and Functionality Collide in Graphic Design

About Me

Hello! I’m Jacklyn Marr, a graphic designer with a Bachelor’s Degree in Fine Arts with a Concentration in Graphic Communications from Northwestern State University and over 5 years of experience in the marketing industry.

Originally from Lafayette, LA, I now call Baton Rouge, LA my home. My passion for graphic design is deeply rooted in my love for communicating messages through the universal language of visuals. I stay updated on the latest trends, ensuring my designs are both modern and impactful. When I’m not designing, I enjoy fostering and working with cats at a local shelter, playing with my foster cats, and exploring the rich culture of Southern Louisiana.
