About
I’m John Harvey, a designer and biomedical communications professional who translates complex medical concepts into clear visuals and usable interfaces. Over a career spanning more than two decades, I’ve built Harvey Visuals Studio and collaborated with medical device companies, publishers, and research institutions to craft graphics, branding, and digital content that simplify the complex and engage diverse audiences.
My work covers patient-facing materials, investor relations, regulatory documentation, and data-driven dashboards. I enjoy shaping information architecture, UX/UI design, and illustrated storytelling to help teams move from insight to impact. Outside of work, I contribute to the 2SLGBTQI+ community through board service and volunteering, and I stay active with master’s swimming and wellness practices.
