About
Hi, I’m Jodie Ellena, a graphic designer with nearly 25 years of experience, based in Margate, Kent. I’ve lived in Margate for over 11 years and I’m one of the owners of The Sun Deck and The Bus Café, where I’m responsible for creating and managing a wide range of marketing and design assets—from social media graphics and art direction to posters, flyers, menus, signage and more.

My design background spans retail and workplace roles, including design leadership and account management, where I specialised in tactical communication, wayfinding, signage, navigation strategy and branding. I’ve led creative work for major campaigns and national rollouts, and I now bring that mix of strategy, detail and reliability to locally focused projects across Thanet, including branding and guideline work for community and cultural organisations.
