visual artist | graphic designer

Jo Waring
I’m a Baltimore-based artist, educator, and designer who’s always been drawn to visual storytelling. After several years teaching high school art, I moved into graphic design and now work at Johns Hopkins University, where I create thoughtful, donor-facing materials as part of the principal gifts team. I’m currently pursuing a master’s degree in graphic and web design at MCAD, continuing to expand my practice and perspective.
My background in art continues to shape how I approach design, and I still make time to paint and explore personal projects outside of my
9-5. I have two children, Walter and Teddy, and spend my free time swimming, reading, and making things whenever I can.
