hi! i’m jen.

Creative Director + Copywriter + Producer + Screenwriter


I’ve got a mashup of agency, in-house, freelance and life experience that I bring to any project – along with a healthy dose of fearlessness and fun (or so I’m told).


I can take almost anything from buttoned-up, business-in-the-front brief to sparkly, party-in-the-back finished product. I love concepting so much I’d do it for free and I swoon over a clever turn of phrase.


Take a stroll around my site and you’ll stumble across some stuff I’m pretty proud of. But – full disclosure – I’m raising three absurdly awesome humans who are the best work I’ve ever done. And will probably tell me this is, and I quote, “cringe”.
