Sydney Mintle
I've had the privilege of working with some pretty incredible women over the years and Jessica Branning is at the very top of that list. She's kind, funny, creative, and one of the hardest working women you'll ever meet. Over the years we've worked on launch parties, curated influencer events, produced runway shows, hosted panel discussions, planned grand opening parties, and done just about everything in between. I have LOVED working alongside her to make magic happen, even when it seemed impossible. She is a true delight to work with and never ceases to amaze me with her talent and out-of-the-box ideas. I hope our paths cross again soon!

Innovative is the word I would use to describe Jessica. I have had the privilege of working with Jessica on several projects over the years. She is sharp, organized, and a very capable professional. Jessica thinks outside of the box, brainstorming creative ideas, and (while effectively being able to implement them) puts those ideas into action with enthusiasm. Jessica’s personality is magnetic, and she seamlessly connects with people. This is one of her strongest attributes. She fosters professional relationships to build the vast network she now has. Jessica would be a valuable asset to any company or client.
