Jillian Furman is an experienced graphic designer based in St. Louis, Missouri.

Hello! Jillian Furman here. I’m a graphic designer with 12 years of experience in signage, environmental graphics, logo design and printed media.

My love for graphic design sparked during my yearbook class in high school. I’ve always been an artistic person, but there was something about designing on-screen that intrigued me– creating spreads, editing photos, making graphics, choosing typefaces. I became the editor-in-chief my senior year and realized that this was something I could do for a career.

I attended the University of Missouri (Mizzou) where I received my BFA in Graphic Design. After graduating in 2013 I was accepted into a graphic design internship at Switch advertising agency in St. Louis. I continued to build my career working at Summit Sign & Graphics for 12 years. I worked as a Graphic Designer from 2013-2017 and was then promoted to Design Director from 2018-2025.

When I’m not hunkered over my computer, I enjoy spending time with my family, trying new restaurants, going to concerts and traveling. As a native Texan, I have a love for Mexican food and would consider myself a salsa connoisseur. I have been married to my amazing husband Lev since 2021. We have one sweet daughter and a crazy Cockapoo.

My education and work experience has allowed me to expand my design skillset so that I can support businesses in many ways. I’ve had the opportunity to work on all types of projects ranging from large-scale design packages to personal design requests. During my time at Summit Sign & Graphics, my client base covered many industries: retail, corporate, commercial and residential real estate, construction, entertainment, hospitality, education and religious organizations.

I made the decision to start JKF Creative to give myself the flexibility to work with a wider range of clients and reach a larger audience. By having my own business, I’ve opened myself up to more opportunities that fuel my passion for design.

Alright, enough talking… Let’s see what we can create together!
