About me

In the last 3+ years, I’ve cultivated my skills in web design primarily through hands-on client projects. Presently, my focus lies in aiding small businesses with meticulous visual design, prioritizing user experience and ensuring seamless mobile optimization.

I’m passionate about continuous learning, often exploring design blogs, tutorials, and other resources to enhance my skills. This drive fuels my growth as a creative professional.

Recently, I have worked with Ripplesinafrica, a non-profit that empowers women by creating an economic pathway to alleviate poverty and hunger among women and children in Nigeria, West Africa.

Testimonials

“Working with Joanne has been one of the best experiences I could have had for updating my website. She is kind, thoughtful and a pleasure to work with. She took the time to understand my business and also the goals I wanted to achieve in overhauling the overall look of the site.

My website had been operating on a basic theme which made it look very generic. She studied the pre-existing content and reorganized it so that it was well designed, easy to understand and aesthetically pleasing. She was responsive to my input and also answered all of the questions I had, making each step feel stress free and also collaborative.

I feel such a sense of accomplishment, gratification and relief that I can present my customers and community with a beautiful website that describes the work that I offer while being able to distinguish my brand from my competitors. I know this would not have been possible without Joanne’s expert help in bringing the vision of my business seamlessly onto my website.”

I am composing this letter to wholeheartedly endorse Joanne Ren, who has been an integral part of our team at Yaji Spice (for profit arm of Ripples In Africa) as a dedicated volunteer Web Designer for an extended duration. In my capacity as the VP Marketing, Ihave had the privilege of closely witnessing Joanne’s remarkable contributions to our direct-to-consumer brand.

During her tenure with us, Joanne consistently exhibited an exceptional level of expertise and a wide range of skill sets, which she adeptly applied to the creation and development of our brand’s website from the ground up. Her passion for design, coupled with her dedication to our cause, truly set her apart.

Joanne’s ability to work both independently and as part of a team was truly impressive. As the sole designer on our team, she efficiently translated creative briefs into captivating website designs with minimal guidance. She exhibited remarkable adaptability, swiftly incorporating revisions and adjustments to meet our evolving needs. Thanks to Joanne’s efforts, our website can successfully launch within an exceptionally short timeframe.

In summary, Joanne Ren is an exceptional talent and a valuable asset to any organization. Her expertise, dedication, and positive attitude have significantly contributed to the success of our project. I have no doubt that she will continue to excel in her future endeavors. I wholeheartedly recommend Joanne for any role that demands
creativity, technical proficiency, and a strong commitment to achieving exceptional results.

“Working with Joanne has been an incredibly positive experience. She’s not only easy to work with but also maintains clear communication at every step of the process. When I felt overwhelmed and uncertain about where to start with redesigning my entire website, Joanne stepped in with expertise and guidance. She did an exceptional job capturing and bringing to life the vision I had for my restaurant’s rebranding. Her design skills truly elevated our brand image, and I couldn’t be happier with the results.”
