About

Hi — I'm Jewell.

I run Midwest Graphic Design Studio out of northwest Missouri, working with small businesses, nonprofits and families who need design done properly without an agency's overhead.

Why this studio exists

I started this studio in early 2026 after years of making things for people who needed them — programs, flyers, logos, keepsakes — and noticing how often small organizations were stuck choosing between a template that looked like everyone else's and an agency quote they could never justify.

There's a lot of room in between. That's where I work.

Most of my clients are one to ten people. A nonprofit that needs a real identity instead of clip art. A family business finally replacing the logo from 1994. A family that needs a program designed by Thursday. None of them need a pitch deck or an account manager. They need someone to answer the phone, quote a fair price, and deliver on the date.

How I work

Fixed prices, written scopes, and a delivery date I hold myself to. If something will cost more, you hear it before I do the work, not on the invoice. If a project isn't a good fit for me, I'll say so and point you somewhere better.

I build in Canva as often as Illustrator, on purpose. It means I can hand you editable templates your own team can use for small changes, instead of making you come back to me every time a date changes on a flyer.

The nonprofit side

I do the design work for Nexus Point Family Foundation, a Missouri 501(c)(3) family-services organization. That work is the reason the nonprofit package on this site exists and why it's shaped the way it is — I know which pieces a small organization actually reaches for, and which ones sit unused in a folder.

What you can count on

A real answer, quickly

Quotes back within two business days, and a phone number that reaches a person.

The files, all of them

Print-ready, web, vector and editable. You own the final artwork outright.

No scope creep games

The price we agree on is the price. Extra rounds are quoted before they start.
