She and her team constantly seek ways to improve their partners' organizations while growing her own. She does this by listening deeply to others, identifies connection points (e.g., sponsor goals + team marketing initiatives + doing lots of additional homework), and delivers creative solutions based on learnings. Jessica is one of my favorite people to talk to because 1) I usually learn something new; 2) we brainstorm ideas for fun; and 3) she really cares about the people in her circle. I've enjoyed the years we've worked together and look forward to more collaboration in the future!", "Having the opportunity to work with Jessica has been one of the best experiences in my young sports career. She has an incredibly positive and encouraging attitude, regardless of the situation. She is a strategic thinker and always looking at ways to improve herself, her staff, and her partnerships. I know that she will be an amazing asset to any team, not only due to her ability to successfully sell and build relationships, but also because of how well she manages people. Although I didn’t work directly for Jessica, I saw first-hand how she can get the most out of her emplyees.", and "I first met Jessica about 4 years ago at Ohio University. Little did I know she would have such an impact on my career in sports. Over the years, I turned to Jessica for advice on projects, career moves, and sponsorship. Soon after she moved to Columbus she hired me on the sponsorship sales team with the Jackets. As a Director, Jessica provides incredible guidance, advice, strategy, and confidence. As a coworker, Jessica was a great role model for the organization and had a major impact on showing me how to build and strengthen relationships with business partners of the team. Although my time with Jessica lasted only 8 months, I am very fortunate for the opportunity she gave me to transition to sponsorship sales as well as the unmeasurable time and energy she put into my professional development."
