About Me
I Believe in Storytelling

When effective writing and good design form a strong narrative, anything is possible.
Josh Smith
My love for writing began during my school days in the northeastern United States. My favorite teachers taught English. Writing was fun, and I loved the practice.
I studied aeronautical science and became a commercial pilot at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. I never lost my love for writing. I minored in business administration, humanities, and international relations while working as a writing tutor.
After going on to become an A&P aircraft mechanic, I was picked up as Director of Marketing at one of Greater Boston’s best flight schools. I designed websites, helped build a premium brand, photographed student milestones, and managed social media.
A few years later, I moved to Atlanta and worked as an Associate Copywriter for a thriving business communication company. I was promoted to Senior Project Specialist and given responsibility for company marketing and the blog. Through the years, I designed entire brand narratives for my company and my clients by building website layouts and writing the copy. I designed and wrote many hard-copy assets as well.
I started Josh Smith Digital Design (JSDD) while learning a new language in the Middle East. I began adding original photos and videos to my writing to tell more complete stories customized for business goals.
I continue to serve clients across North America and around the world.
