Hi, I'm Jess!

Discover the creative journey of Jess Pollis, a multidisciplinary graphic designer based in Pittsburgh, showcasing a portfolio of innovative design projects that inspire and engage.

Designer by Day, Dog Mom by Always

I grew up in the Pittsburgh area and have always had a love for both art and computers—which naturally led me to graphic design. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work with major corporations like Allegheny Health Network, First National Bank, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, and now Joe Zeff Design.

I’m especially passionate about helping local businesses build brands that thrive in their communities. I'm currently open to contract work and always looking for new creative collaborations.

When I’m not designing, you can usually find me paddle boarding, playing hockey, or hanging out with my rescue dogs.

AIGA Pittsburgh

Formerly AIGA Pittsburgh’s Education Director, I’ve loved creating opportunities for students to grow, connect, and thrive in the design world. These days, I’m serving as Treasurer—but I still run our student portfolio reviews and plan local events that bring designers together across the city.
