Jessica hails from Florida where she grew up riding horses and competing nationally in Equestrian events around the country. She graduated Summa Cume Laude from the University of Miami with a double major in Fine Arts & Communications, and a minor in Marketing. As the section Editor on a nationally awarded yearbook staff and a co-founder of the first American Cancer Society Relay for Life organization on campus, she was an active member of the campus student body.

Jessica then traded in her saddle for a career opportunity at Crispin Porter + Bogusky where she spearheaded a new product launch for Coca-Cola Zero and a non-profit anti-prescription drug abuse effort with Partnership for a Drug Free America. From Sprite and Haggar new business initiatives and internal process development, Jessica gained invaluable experience in an intense, creative and thought-provoking environment.

Fast-forward and Jessica found herself braving her first winter in New York and quickly acclimating to the fast-paced city lifestyle. She put a stake in the ground at Bartle Bogle & Hegarty where she tightened her strategic belt and worked hand-in-hand with some of the brightest minds in the business. Jessica played an integral role on the first global tourism campaign for NYC, the multi-million dollar new product launch for AXE hair and non-traditional agency initiatives. She also managed multiple new business pitches and led various green initiatives within the agency during her tenure.

Now, Jessica is the newest member of the OgilvyEntertainment team and brings a unique blend of integrated and non-traditional specialty to our small entrepreneurial group. She is responsible the development of branded content priorities for IBM and thinkorswim, as well as various new business initiatives. She brings a new school of thought and leadership to an atmosphere where the lines are blurred, partnership and collaboration are at the centerfold of working and where "no" is not a part of the vocabulary.
