Hey! I’m Jaks

Your creative partner, Brand Strategist, and lead Website Designer

(And yes, Jaks or Jackie totally works.)

I’m the founder and lead designer behind Jaks Digital LLC, a Long Island, NY based studio helping passionate entrepreneurs build brands and websites that feel aligned, elevated, and genuinely reflective of who they are. I’m extremely 1:1 with my clients, so you’ll always feel like a VIP. 

Back in 2018, I fell in love with the online business world and ditched my 9–5 for good. Since then, I’ve helped over 125 service-based businesses grow with strategic branding and custom Squarespace web design that tells their story and attracts the right people.

As your brand strategist and website expert, my job is simple: help you show up with confidence, clarity, and consistency—so your dream clients know exactly why you’re the one.

From Cubicle Life to Full Creative Freedom

Entrepreneurship gives you the power to make your own rules—and as your brand and website expert, I’m here to help you discover what’s possible when you do.

Fresh out of college, I found myself in the same routine so many creatives fall into: commuting, clocking in, working hard for little reward, and barely making it home in time for dinner. It felt like survival mode, and I couldn’t shake the question: Is this really it?

Then one day, a Facebook ad changed everything. The idea of working from anywhere clicked. Not for travel’s sake, but for the freedom. Freedom to work from my couch. A friend’s kitchen. 30,000 feet in the sky. By the pool. Wherever life happened to take me.

That’s when I walked away from the 9–5 grind and dove headfirst into learning how to turn my design skills into a full-time business. Since then, this journey has been about personal growth, creative independence, and helping other entrepreneurs design brands that support the lives they actually want too.

My Personal Approach to Brand Strategy & Squarespace Design

What started as a leap toward freedom has grown into a career rooted in creative flow, meaningful client relationships, and work that feels genuinely fulfilling. When you work with me, you’re not passed off to a team or shuffled through a process. You have my full attention, every step of the way.

I thrive on the challenges that come with building thoughtful brands and websites, and I’m deeply grateful for the flexibility to create, the trust my clients place in me, and the opportunity to help shape how their businesses show up in the world.

I work with passionate, hard-working entrepreneurs who are ready to lead with clarity and confidence. And every day, my mission remains the same: to help you feel empowered by your brand, supported by your website, and proud of the way you show up online.

If you’re ready to partner with a creative who takes your late-night ideas and scribbled brainstorms and turns them into something refined, strategic, and meaningful, you’re in the right place.

Let’s design a brand and website that moves you forward.

    “Working with Jackie was a dream come true! After a few months of bumbling around trying to design my own website, I realized I needed some help. Jackie took all of my ideas and brought them to life! She is very skilled in her craft. She does a great job communicating throughout the process, so I never felt lost or out of the loop even while she did work above my pay grade.

  • "Jaks developed my brand in a way that exemplified my voice and vision"

    I hired Jaks Digital to create a website for my new law firm, along with marketing templates. I was truly blown away by her work and the process. I knew exactly what to expect when I hired Jaks because of clear communication and clear expectations. Jaks took me through an entire branding experience as well, and developed my brand in a way that exemplified my voice and vision - it was absolutely perfect and I came away with a website that reflected my firm's vision and core values.

  • "If you're an entrepreneur, this is the best money ever invest"

    "I was hesitant to spend the money on redoing my website as I've always done it myself before. After hiring Jackie, I've realized how important it is to have cohesive branding. Not only did she redo the website, she also recreated my handouts and many images so everything was consistent. If you're an entrepreneur, this is the best money ever invest so you don't have to waste time and money on redoing it yourself or paying for all the plugins needed with wordpress; as Squarespace (the platform she uses) will support all your needs.

    -Tara J. Gregorio, Herbalist

I joke that she is my “forever web designer” but it isn’t a joke. The amount of care, intentionality, and professionalism that come through in her creations are pure art. It’s hard to find a professional you trust with your business and this woman is it.
