Hello! I'm Jess, a strategist and designer currently living and working in Columbus, Ohio.
I believe that strategy and design aren’t mutually exclusive. From leading product design at small tech startups to consulting for some of the largest brands in the world at IBM, I thrive in balancing big strategic challenges with the down-to-the-pixel details. I enjoy partnering with brands to create beautiful, functional experiences their audience will love—that will also drive measurable results for their business.
When not working, I’m never happier than when I’m digging into good food or a good book, and enjoying the great outdoors by hiking, sailing, snowboarding or gardening.
