Bio
Kieron Tarling
Our mission was to develop and deliver a virtual 24 hour cross-continent studio service for a large blue chip client in record time. This required a skilled project management team with a strong leader. After a mistake (admittedly of my own doing) in a bad hire, we were saved by the arrival of Jessie to our newly formed team. Her ability to guide multiple large projects, maintain strong margins, keep projects on schedule and manage relationships with a complex client played a big part in what was to be come a very successful venture. Jessie seamlessly developed her management role and worked effectively across departments, aligning teams whilst staying agile to get the job done. I would highly recommend Jessie to anyone looking to build and develop strong teams and new ventures.
Kristen Gambetta
Jessie and I worked together on a documentary project in 2019. Jessie was committed to going above and beyond to deliver the best work that met our vision. She has an incredibly positive presence that immediately struck me and instantaneously built trust between her and our team. Her leadership is rooted with determination and a strong, focused vision, making her incredibly versatile and a huge asset to any team or company.
