Even as a kid, Jess Huddy was in hot pursuit of creative pursuits of every stripe and color. As she grew up, those interests pushed her to the field of graphic design. Today, she calls herself a designer and appreciates how the design process perfectly blends problem-solving and art.

Before joining Cobalt’s design team, Jess worked as a design consultant for a variety of independent schools, colleges and universities, and nonprofits. Prior to that, she worked at Studio-e Design, where she collaborated with a number of education and nonprofit clients, including Westover School, Princeton University, the Nantucket Atheneum, and Harvard Business School. Her work has been recognized with a Grand Gold award from CASE, the Council for the Advancement and Support of Education.

Jess’s other experiences include serving on the board of a nonprofit farm (where all of their organic produce is donated to local food pantries and meal programs) and regularly participating in a 24-hour birdwatching/fundraising event for the Massachusetts Audubon Society. She is also interested in photography, knitting, metalsmithing and a variety of outdoor activities.
