Crafting Digital Success with a Personal Touch

Welcome to My Corner of the Digital World!

Hi there! I’m Jessica, passionate digital marketing strategist dedicated to helping businesses grow and thrive online. With over a decade of experience, I specialize in SEO, content marketing, WordPress, and e-commerce strategies tailored to your unique needs.

Outside of work, I’m known for my three charismatic cockatoos. Boo, my Goffin’s Cockatoo, has been my companion since May 2000. Misha, a Moluccan Cockatoo, joined me in 2015, and Sara, an Umbrella Cockatoo, came into my life unexpectedly in July 2023. These beautiful birds, who can live 50-80 years in captivity, are a significant part of my life, and I am 100% committed to their care.

I’m currently employed full time as a Marketing and Communications manager at the nonprofit VentureLab, but available after business hours for side-projects that interest me.

Despite its aim to unite the community, challenges such as resource intensity, market saturation, financial viability, technical barriers, and changing personal circumstances led to the decision. The project gave me valuable lessons in data scraping, local SEO, and AI writing.
