Amanda was raised in Northeast Ohio with a passion for art starting at a young age.  Doodling on her parent's bedroom wall as a preschool-aged child is her first memory of creating a "work of art"! During elementary school, she always enjoyed seeing a blue or red ribbon hanging on a school art project at the county fair. In high school, Amanda could be found finishing a project in the art room during every study hall or free time. 

She started her own freelance photography company in 2013 - 2015 and enjoyed expressing her creativity through the lens of her camera. While working at a local photography studio from 2016 to 2022 she found her love of graphic design.
Due to her busy schedule at home, Amanda decided it was time to go out on her own in August 2023.
AJG Graphics and Design was established!

When Amanda is not in front of her computer creating or behind the lens saying, "Just one more picture" she can be found camping, attending one of her kids' many activities, being the "mom taxi", walking her beloved golden retriver,  day-dreaming of another Florida vacation, or digging into another DIY project around the house with her husband.
