And I'm Only 30

Ever pondered the shift from a tranquil town to the bustling streets of New York City? In her early twenties, Jess took the leap. Navigating a demanding industry where she often outpaces her male counterparts, yet earns significantly less, balancing life as a devoted dog mom, and navigating the complex terrain of NYC dating, Jess juggles it all while seeking meaningful connections and cherishing moments with friends. Amidst the city’s chaos, will she find the bond she’s searching for?

Jessi is an independent woman who graduated from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design. She has been working in advertising for over 10 years, where it’s very (white) male-dominated. She’s here to break barriers and comfort zones. Jessi tries to host fundraisers for rescue dogs as often as possible. While being one of “those” millennial dog moms – which she’s very proud of.
