After attending Alfred State College of Technology for a degree in Computer Arts and Design, Jess took the skills she learned and used them to help promote musicians and New York based startups and ascending brands. Working with music labels like RCA/J Records and Digital Marketing companies like Vangard Media Group, she helped design websites that created compelling voices for brands and talent with strategic concepts to help build a rabid following.
Soon after, Jessica joined the digital marketing team at Viacom/MTV Networks and marshaled the rebranding of MTV2’s digital presence. She contributed in creating innovating marketing strategies to build a marketshare for social media platforms, maintain and manage several social media accounts, create digital creative, and assist in created digital buys for all shows promotion.
Looking for a new challenge, Jessica looked to expand her knowledge by working with well established agencies (AKQA, Icrossing, and Mekanism) and worked as a community manager for clients like Pespi co., Verizon, Jack Links Jerky, PNC Bank and Hilton Hotels. When not working for an agency or direct brand, Jessica does freelance projects where she works on her photography, photo editing/Graphic design, web development and Digital Marketing consultant.

Missing her roots in the music industry, she decided to go back first working with XITE as Head of Social Media Marketing (US) and as of recently founding her home at Beggars Group where she now holds the title of Creative Web Developer.
During her off time, she enjoys learning new things about tech, social media & digital marketing. She is also a huge music and pop culture buff who loves to travel domestically and internationally and try out different restaurants to build up her ‘foodie’ status.
