Consulting
I’m thrilled to offer one-on-one consulting designed to give you custom-tailored clarity, insight, and a plan so you can build a business that is a bridge to the life you dream of. A little about my background… I’m a Seattle based artist and entrepreneur with 16+ years of experience creating successful product based businesses. Today I am delivering my creative products in all 50 states and in over 1000 retailers across the world. I have extensive experience in the wholesale industry- opening doors and building positive working relationships with companies that range from large retailers- including Amazon and Whole Foods Market - to smaller indie stores and boutiques.
I know first hand the hard work it takes to create a brand and an excellent product.... and how daunting it can feel to get that product into the right markets.
I strongly support the success of women owned, BIPOC businesses.
Running a business can be overwhelming and isolating. But it doesn't have to be. We all need someone who can look at our gifts, passions and calling with fresh eyes, and call out the very best in us and our businesses. With a one-on-one consulting session, you'll find clarity, gain insight, and leave with a plan so you can build the business and life you want.
It's my passion to share what I have learned - the keys to brand development, successful marketing and creating meaningful and advantageous connections.I strongly support the success of women owned, BIPOC businesses.

Client Testimonials
"I met Jessica when I was dealing with the reality of our studio closing after 30+ years of continual operation. I had been exhausted with our efforts to keep our space. Jessica drew me into easy conversation, asking pointed - but necessary! - questions about my vision, my product, and next steps. She has a relaxed conversational manner that allowed me to ease out of the conflict at hand. Suddenly there were options, opportunities and ideas I hadn't yet considered or fully appreciated! She is extraordinary at reframing a problem space. Combined with her deep personal experience in brand creation and sustainable (and smart!) marketing, she makes all things seem possible. But the real proof is in the willingness to hold me accountable for the steps to get me from despair, to hope, and eventually into business is what I appreciate the most about working with Jessica. Her willingness to step into that role is genuine - she truly wants to see other succeed on their terms. I so enjoyed working with her; it didn't ever feel like "work." This is her genius - she let me dig my own hole, but she always ensured the hole wasn't too wide, deep or hard to fill back in."
Dari Stolzoff, Back Space Studio
"I met Jessica at such a transitional point in my business. I was overwhelmed with multiple goals and not able to focus and make plans. Jessica came along and helped me pinpoint all of my small needs and big dreams, break them down into actionable steps, and offered much encouragement and accountability to accomplish each task. With her deep knowledge, experience, and enthusiasm, Jessica was an incredible coach and really helped me make important, impactful changes in my business.” Kelley Fengstein, Old Friend Jewelry

"Jessica is super encouraging and worked with me to make sure I was thinking through all the moving parts of running a creative business. She is so invested in supporting other artists, especially women of color, as well as connecting artists with resources and one another.
