about me

 After years in the hospitality business, owner Johanna Vissman French decided to go out on her own and dive into the world of DIY. She began a business where she flipped furniture, which rapidly evolved into reselling vintage home decor and furnishings. She quickly learned about visual merchandising and fell in love with staging her goods to be photographed or sold at a local vintage shop. Johanna spent 2 years curating unique and one of a kind collections, but ultimately decided it was time to pursue her dream of home staging. She soon acquired a job with a local staging company and spent a year and half honing her craft. Now, with the launch of JOVI FRENCH CREATIVE STUDIO AND STAGING, Johanna gets to continue to grow both creatively and professionally and work with the best realtors that Columbus and beyond has to offer.  

Meet The Frenchs! My incredible family (and sometimes, team) includes my husband, Brandon, and our two wonderful kids—Connor & Clover. We share our home in Newark with our two kittens—Lou-Lou & Jinx. My husband is the VP of an architectual laser scanning firm, while our kids just graduated kindergarten and high school. We love to cook and try new restaurants, travel, listen to music, and hang out in our backyard with family, friends, and the firepit. When we're not doing all of those things, we're working on fixing up our 1955 Cape Cod or building furniture in the wood shop.
