About Jessica

Jessica grew up in Michigan and studied Art & Design in Chicago, with an intermission to study landscape architecture in Budapest, Hungary. After graduating, she bought a one-way ticket to Berlin and charmed her way (so she thinks) into a set of apprenticeships with some really refreshing designers. When her visa expired she deliberated for 3 or 4 minutes before migrating to San Francisco, where she settled into the cozy hub of The Duboce Triangle, where she has been trying to figure out the heating system in her apartment for the last three years. Her likes include free samples, turbulence, and infomercials about cleaning supplies. Dislikes include the current postage stamp options, newscaster voice, and being peer pressured into a standing ovation.
