About Jo Higgs

I am an experienced freelance creative who possesses the skills to help you realise your design goals.

I am a friendly professional who wants to hear more about your business and its unique selling points. Bishop’s Stortford, Hertfordshire, is where I call home. However, I work with clients virtually to enable me to connect with you wherever you are based.

I want to go on a journey with you, to help you create what your business or agency needs, be it new branding, a refresh or help on an existing project that just needs some extra wo-man power. My long career in design has equipped me with a real variety of skills, ready to help you. I am always happy to take the time to chat about your requirements on the phone, over zoom or a coffee, so get in touch and we can get started.

Personal info: I live in Hertfordshire where I run an after-school art club. Family time is spent with my husband and two children. I have a real love for music (all sorts, I have an eclectic taste, happy to discuss). In the past I’ve done a bit of salsa dancing and I’m pretty good at accents. Hire me to find out more.

My diverse creative skill set allows me to adapt to a multitude of work environments and industries.

Experienced

10+ years of solid graphic design agency experience, coupled with 15 + years of creative and marketing experience.

Qualified

A qualified out of the box thinker, I studied at the Norwich University of the Arts before going on to do a Higher National Diploma in Graphic Design.

Joanne has successfully worked on many Nomadic Thoughts designs over the years. She has always been a delight to deal with – efficient, creative and highly professional

Jono Vernon-Powell

MD Nomadic Thoughts (Worldwide Travel)

“Joanne was such a pleasure to work with, a bright sunny outlook and a can do attitude. We even had some praise from fellow team members whom she worked on a project with.”

Janine Common

Lifestyle Art Editor, Tui Group

“Jo asked all the right questions to understand what my business was, who I was, and what my motivations and aspirations were. I couldn’t be happier with the end result! Jo was communicative throughout the whole project, answered all my questions with ease and clarity, listened to my ideas, and translated them into a design and logo that truly reflects my brand.

Louise

Founder of The Mind Oracle

“Joanne has been providing design work for our business for a number of years. In that time she has been instrumental in modernising our brand and developing marketing material to reflect our values. Her design concepts are always innovative and appropriate and she always goes the extra mile yet delivers on time.”

Chris Doherty

Managing Director Healthvision UK Ltd

“Jo created the new logo for my business. She was an absolutely pleasure to work with, after finding out what I wanted she came up with some brilliant designs, and was happy to work together to tweak the final design. She was very patient with me and I’m very pleased with the end result.”

Suzy Rennison

Admin Unbound Ltd

“At 4OTC we have worked with Jo a number of times, to great effect. Jo created our branding and logo and recently worked with us to create graphic design assets for a series of LinkedIn posts. Jo took the time to understand what you are looking to achieve and was happy working with us in a collaborative and iterative manner until we had something that we were really proud of.”

Alexis Atkinson

Founder 4OTC Ltd

“Jo is amazing to work with. I came to her with a simple remake of my logo to a higher quality. Not only did she do this but she also came back to me with an idea for another logo option. It was just a small change, but something that gave it another level. And something I would never had seen or thought of. So brilliant! I love it so much and would recommend her to anyone!”

Hannah Lipsey

Artist

“I cannot recommend Jo enough! I went to her for a complete overhaul with my branding and she patiently listened to me while I threw around ideas. Jo came up with some beautiful concepts and helped me to keep everything consistent moving forward. Her skill is second to none and she really gets to know her clients as well as their style for their business. Look no further for your design needs!! Thank you Jo!”
