Background

About Jesse Jones

I help brands connect to consumers. From visual identity to strategic marketing, I employ my expertise as a Creative Director to generate insight, power audience engagement, and drive revenue. My prior entrepreneurial experience as the partner of a boutique creative agency gave me the chance to wear many hats. It diversified my experience and enabled me the opportunity to develop and expand my skills, including client management, strategic planning, digital and email marketing, packaging, paid and organic media, and SEO. I excel at creating flexible branding and identity systems for products and entities; systems that ensure cohesion across platform and product. I am inspired by the creative development of compelling content with motion graphics, print and digital media. Developing brand logos is a specialty of mine. Trained in team leadership and coaching techniques, I am known as a trusted partner and collaborator, quick to offer guidance and mentoring to empower team members. With an MFA in painting, I enjoy working in varied mediums and my work has been shown in galleries and studios, primarily in NYC. Prior to my professional career I performed as the lead singer of my band Yuppicide at multiple venues including the famed CBGB’s on the Lower East Side of Manhattan.
