Welcome to Order She Wrote! I'm Joanna and I am She. Lettering (and what I used to call "fancy writing") started as a hobby I could do while performing, and is now a full-time small business! I consider myself lucky I have a career as a creative, and I'm able to share this craft with my friends, my family, and people from all around the world. 

I was born and raised in Washington, D.C. and after graduating from Ithaca College with a BFA in Musical Theatre (Go Bombers!) I moved to New York City, where I’ve been for 14 years. I love escaping the city, taking many trips to lend my right hand to weddings and events, both incredibly grand and heart-wrenchingly intimate. 

I am often asked what I love so much about hand lettering. I love making pretty things with my hands. I love problem-solving and fitting new aesthetics. I love how fast you grow with practice, and that each project is so different. But I also love that someone can clearly see how much love and thoughtful work was put into giving them this special gift; something for them to open, see and enjoy. When they run their fingers over the dried ink, they can see handmade love and think, "Wow, someone made this by hand!"  

Order She Wrote has worked with former President of the United States, Barack Obama (career highlight!) Darcy Miller, and her work has been featured in People Magazine, Martha Stewart Weddings, Carats & Cake, Southern New England Weddings, US Weekly, and CBS Spotlight.
