Joy Johnson

Founder + CEO

Joy Johnson is the Founder and CEO of Joy Creative Studio. For over fifteen years Joy have had the pleasure of providing creative leadership in expanding marketing and brand visions across all digital and social channels, in print and digital advertising, and for over 25 conferences. Before venturing off to start her own studio, Joy led a creative team in the design and production of high-performing digital ad campaigns for prestigious brands such as Procter & Gamble, Target, Chase, Disney, Walgreens, Nintendo, L'Oreal, Netflix, and Hershey's. Joy is honored that she gets to collaborate with some pretty awesome clients — with a focus on working with women entrepreneurs — ensuring that there is a strategically designed and fluid visual narrative through every brand touchpoint. She is equally honored that to have the partnership of two ridiculously talented creatives — Sheila and Gabriela — to get it all done.

Born and raised in California, Joy lives in Silicon Valley with her husband, two kids, two mischievous Bengal cats named Leopard and Bobcat (aka Leo and Bobby), and the cutest 5 pound chihuahua to honor her with her presence, Coconut Jewels Pizza (aka Coco). Joy is also a certified Barre3 instructor, where they teach to be balanced in body by helping to strengthen muscles that suffer from lack of daily use in day-to-day life, and also to be empowered from within by encouraging a shift in focus from how one looks to how one feels.

Joy has a Bachelor of Fine Arts in New Media Design from Academy of Art University, San Francisco.
