Jake Gesick

Hi, my name is Jake Gesick. I am a graphic designer living in Nashville, TN. Originally from Indiana, I graduated from Ball State University in 2022 with a BFA in Visual Communication. My favorite implementations of graphic design are in UI/UX design and motion graphics. Outside of design, I enjoy photography and no matter what I’m doing you can always find me listening to podcasts.
