Accomplished Technical and Business Development Manager with almost 20 years of experience across multiple industries including work with start-ups, corporate fundraising, UI/UX design, front-end development, business operations and general business management. Proven ability to lead multiple technical projects and engage across business design, product, technical and engineering teams to develop products and solutions that exceed client expectations. Collaborative team member and effective communicator with the ability to work within a product or platform environment, create opportunities to enhance efficiencies and performance, and deliver on-time and on-budget solutions to internal and external clients.

I love to write and communicate ideas. I research and get the energy going around new ideas. As they form, I help visualize and bring them to fruition with content creation (writing, web development, and social networking).

I quickly come up with conceptual, as I especially like the ideation phase, whether writing or wireframe. I also am an active project manager of more advanced developers.

I am a people person. I love technical support, getting teams together, brainstorming, and growing ideas. I have built and managed teams of 15 and acted as a project manager using Agile Development method tools like Asana, JIRA, Pivotal, and version control.

I have extensive experience working with remote teams and am always on time with my deliverables and online meetings.

Stand Up Comedy in 2018


A recent client testimonial : My company hired Jesse to help with the front-end design and user interface of our new SaaS platform for the financial crime compliance industry. Jesse was not only able to deliver the project on schedule and budget, but he was also able to meet all of our strict specifications, such as ensuring that the design was older browser compatible (a must for our product). I look forward to working with Jesse on any future projects.
