Kia Ora, I’m Jade! I’m 21 years old and I live in Matata in the beautiful Bay of Plenty. I grew up in a VERY small town in Vermont, in the United States, but I moved to NZ when I was 11 (Dads a kiwi, Mums American).

Jade Steel Creative has existed for nearly three years now, and I could not be happier with how it’s going. My parents have always been business owners and I grew up surrounded by entrepreneurs and creatives, so I knew I wanted to be self-employed from a very young age.

My creative journey started when my grandfather gave me a DSLR camera for my high school graduation gift. I fell in love with photography and making things look beautiful, and eventually people started enquiring and wanting to hire me.

Fast forward to 2022, when I decided to shift my focus to small and medium businesses, and offering digital marketing & branding support. I’m incredibly passionate about working with businesses and I find website design, social media marketing, and branding to be so fulfilling and enjoyable. Nothing makes me happier than seeing a small business thrive.

I am absolutely over the moon with my job, and so grateful that people appreciate the amount of love and creativity I put into my work.

Getting to meet amazing people at different stages of their journeys & businesses, and helping to tell their stories is the best part of what I do. I cannot wait to see where this business will take me.

Please have a browse through my portfolio, and don’t hesitate to send me a message. Whatever you’re after, I cannot wait to collaborate with you and create something beautiful.
