About Me
Nicole is the Joymaker behind Njoy Creative Design. Grateful to be living every day as an artist, mother, and wife in historic Virginia. I enjoy walks in nature, exploring God’s kalidioscope of patterns, textures, and colors, and ultimately generating art that inspires creative possibilities for you. My goal is to inspire and interject joy into your day so you can achieve the life of your dreams. My designs provide a joyful connection emanating elegant chaos through graceful movement, often with a dash of sophisticated whimsy and nostalgia.
My Story
I have been fortunate to lead a rich, fulfilling life immersed in love and art. With a background as a Graphic Designer and Art Director, I dedicated many years to my creative pursuits before embracing the privilege of staying at home to witness the growth and blossoming of my children. Along my journey, I have also embraced the roles of an educator and coach, guiding individuals from preschoolers to seniors. My own educational path includes a BFA in Art and Visual Technology, with a minor in Consciousness and Transformation, which has deepened my passion for fostering leadership and character development. I derive great joy in sharing my knowledge and inspiring others to pursue their creative endeavors.
The Name...
Why Njoy Creative Design, you ask? It wasn't ego, I assure you. In an industry where almost everyone uses their name for recognition, it begs the question: why not follow suit? Well, it's all part of a bigger plan. Picture nine-year-old Nicole doodling at her parent's kitchen table when inspiration struck. With a maiden name like Joy, and a first name Nicole, I was destined to be NJOY every day at roll call in school. So why not embrace it in my brand? It's not just a name; it's a reminder of where it all began and a promise of the joy we bring to every project.
