Hi! I’m Jess.
As a kid, my dream job was to be New York’s lottery queen, Yolanda Vega. Not a veterinarian, astronaut, or any other typical kid dream job. The Pick 4 lady was my holy grail.
Unfortunately, my future in number shouting didn’t exactly work out, so I ended up bartending in NYC which was undoubtedly the most character building time of my life. I truly believe working in hospitality should be a requirement before becoming an acceptable member of society.
Now, instead of making cocktails, I make copy. (Cocktails, occasionally). I write like I speak, so conversational copy is my favorite, but I enjoy the challenge of transforming my writing when taking on brand personalities. Like any creative, I love, love, LOVE concepting and coming with up ideas that are silly, stupid, heartwarming or insanely simple. My ultimate goal? To create something that can do some good in the world.
Let’s grab coffee and discuss any and all pop culture references! Including but not limited to Yolanda Vega.
