Hey There!

Nice to meet you! I’m Jalen.

Welcome to Jalen Gooch Creative Co., a creative agency based in the bay area making design accessible to small businesses and start-ups. Building a website or a brand identity shouldn’t be something to check off your to-do list, but should open the door to exploration, joy, and adventure.


I bring years of experience working with start-ups, non-profit organizations, small businesses, and more. I’ve helped college students turn their product ideas into concrete prototypes and designs to present to stakeholders, and equipped small businesses with personalized professional branding kits to be used for years to come.


What are you waiting for? Let’s embark on a creative journey.

“Jalen was great to work with and exemplified professionalism throughout the process. He’s very talented and gave us exactly what we needed.”
