Who am I?

Hi, I’m Jord

A Boston graphic designer working remotely for Overseas Media Group & Keys Weekly, and founder of Made by Jord, my freelance studio (since 2020)

Lately that means building new websites, the Upper Keys edition of Keys Weekly, and a stack of brands in between.

I like making things that feel handmade, from the weekly ad page to the merch table.

See all work

Yours truly,

Jordan
