My name is Jason Jara and I’m a creator. I’m an LA-based Graphic Designer with 8 years of experience in Branding, Logo Design, Print Design, elemental web understanding, Podcast video editing, social media graphic creation and more.
I enjoy lending my abilities to convey messages, visualize meanings, tell a story, and even start a movement.
Notable Clients
Simply put. I love helping give identity.
“Who am I/?”
…is a question that I feel everyone asks at some point in their life/journey.
It may or may not be a defining moment for an individual when they ask this question. For an organization, it’s a starting point. Being able to lend my abilities so you can claim the answer to this question is something I love to do.

After graduating with a degree in Graphic Design, I spent about a year creating freelance work, trying to find my place. Over time, I realized my place was helping others find/establish their identity. In 2017, I was given the amazing opportunity to help a startup by the name of Next Health- a health optimization & longevity center whose central focus is disrupting the healthcare industry. I lent my skills and passions to this movement for 4 years and was blessed to help them go from a small flagship in West Hollywood to a partnership with the Four Seasons Resort Maui; making them a force to be reckoned with in the proactive medicine market. Since then, I have had the amazing opportunities to work with well-known Medical and Health & Fitness brands.
Have had the pleasure of working with notable brands such as Equinox, Humana, Anthem Blue Cross, Heritage Provider Network, Los Angeles Times, Warner Pacific, The Wow Factor Podcast, The Flexible Neurotic Podcast, Rejuve Health, SCAN Health Plan, and so much more.
