ABOUT ME
My name is Jerrica Willins, and I’m a graphic designer, illustrator, and web enthusiast based in Memphis, TN. I specialize in creating dynamic, user-centered web experiences, bold visual storytelling through illustration, and clean, thoughtful graphic design. I’m passionate about hand-coding websites, crafting expressive digital artwork, and building designs that both communicate and captivate.
Currently, I work as a graphic designer at Doug Carpenter Associates (DCA), where I collaborate with a talented creative team on brand, web, and campaign work for a wide range of clients. With over 7 years of experience, I’ve designed for nonprofits like Girls Inc., household names like Hunter Fans, and many small businesses looking to make a big visual impact.
My work has been recognized with a Gold ADDY Award in 2023 for my illustration series Trash Talk, and earlier in my journey, I earned two Scholastic Gold Key Awards in 2012 for excellence in illustration—an early sign of the passion that still drives me today.
Whether it's coding a custom website or illustrating a moody character series, I love bringing design ideas to life. Explore my portfolio to see how I can help tell your story—visually, thoughtfully, and with a bit of flair.
