Instructor's Courses

Laci Jordan is a Los Angeles based artist and creative director from Hunstville, Alabama. She has worked with companies including Walt Disney Imagineering, ABC, and Creative Artists Agency.

Laci runs So Laci Like, an uncensored creative space where she creates content with no filter – from sharing design inspiration, documenting life, or venting about why rappers use terrible font choices.

Laci is inspired to create content due to the lack of visibility of black creatives – especially black women. She's making the stuff you don't see by the person you usually don't see.
