Her guidance went far beyond theory—Jessica walked alongside me as I curated my very first event, offering not only her expertise but her unwavering support. She has a rare ability to make complex business concepts feel approachable and applicable, and she genuinely invests in the success of those she works with.
Years later, as a business owner, I am still applying the lessons Jessica taught me. The strategies she shared around branding, operations, and community-building continue to shape how I lead and grow my business today. Her impact has been long-lasting and invaluable, and I can confidently say that my business would not be where it is without her influence.
