Who I Am: UX Strategist/ Project Manager/ Community Builder/ Fire-Starter

I am a compulsive organizer and analyzer, sushi devourer, and entrepreneur. I’m opinionated, open-minded and insatiably curious. I'm driven, energetic and a natural leader (ENTJ). I balance the serious things in my life with a lot of silliness, sarcasm and sass. I say bad words too often. I love adventure. Sometimes I’m afraid of the dark, but I'm never afraid of a challenge.

I found Jessica to be consistently pleasant, tackling all assignments with dedication and a smile. Besides being a joy to work with, she's is a take-charge person who is very organized and dependable. She possesses great character and shows interest and willingness to learn new things. She has assisted with solicitations for my department that have resulted in increased revenue. I highly recommend Jessica. She is a team player and would make a great asset to any organization.

Michelle Cavlo

Jessica is a marketing powerhouse. She's one of the hardest working people that I know. I mean, she is always doing something: traveling to a conference, organizing an event, helping people at work, etc. She has earned my respect many times over, and I appreciate her friendship. She is one of many cool people that I've met through Twitter in the Tampa Bay area.


D.A. Schweiss

Working with Jessica on The Start Up Bus was a pleasure; She is focused, driven and expects perfection from whichever project she applies herself. With long hours, an extremely cramped work space and spotty internet connectivity, Jessica was able to keep our team motivated with her sense of humor and tenacity to get the job done right. She is brilliant when it comes to blending business goals with online strategy; her ability to break down concepts and explain them so everyone understands their role is top notch.
