A Bit About Me
I'm Grace Pierce, a junior at James Madison University, pursuing a major in Media Arts & Design with a Creative Advertising concentration and a minor in Sports Communication. I have an interest in graphic design, social media marketing, logo design, event planning, and sports, and my academic journey has allowed me to merge these passions seamlessly. Ultimately, my love for creating and the art of storytelling is evident in my work. Feel free to explore my portfolio or reach out for more information and inquiries!
