As a little kid, Jessica Downs was always doodling and playing in her mother’s craft supplies and knew, from an early age, that art would play a role in her life. She received an Associates Degree in Graphic Design from Mohawk Valley Community College and a BFA in Graphic Design from Rochester Institute of Technology. Once out of school she tried her hand as an interior designer at a high end furniture store and as an in-house graphic designer for a library supplies company. She is now the in-house creative lead at Bella Figura where she is living the dream life designing beautiful letterpress invitations.
