Media Production

Jessica has built her career proving that the old adage “cheap, fast, or good — pick any two” doesn’t have to apply. With the right mix of hard skills, experience, and passion, she consistently produces work that delivers all three.

She brings over a decade of experience as an award-winning media producer, developing original IP across feature films, television, books, comics, games, and interactive media. Jessica takes projects from early concept through pitching, financing, production, and distribution, building and leading teams ranging from small, nimble crews to productions of 100+ creatives.

  • Showrunner and host of the broadcast TV miniseries Fun City, one of the network’s top-rated programs by viewership.

  • Over 120 million views across original short-form video content, demonstrating repeatable audience growth and platform fluency.

  • Feature film Charlotte’s Song, winner of five Leo Awards and record-holder for the fastest sellout premiere at the Vancouver International Film Festival.

  • Creator and executive producer of Compendium, Vancouver Film School’s flagship, school-wide showcase bringing together top students and alumni to produce groundbreaking short film compilations; this work led to a Canadian New Media Awards nomination for Digital Media Woman of the Year.

  • Founder and launch lead of Comic Creation Nation, a national initiative developed with Telefilm Canada and the Canadian government to help Canadian storytellers with big ideas access international markets and larger commercial stages.

  • Published author of three print books, including an Amazon Staff Pick title which was also featured on Chapters/Indigo bestseller displays, and garnered global press coverage.

  • Extensive additional work across apps, digital platforms, and experimental interactive media.

  • One of the reasons Jessica is able to crack the “fast-cheap-good” nut is that when needed, she can step in directly and execute hard skills at a senior professional level.

    • Concept development, world-building, and character design

    • Casting, crewing, and team leadership

Brand & Audience Building

Jessica builds audiences the hard way: by doing the research, understanding how communities actually work, and showing up with genuine curiosity and respect.

Over the past decade, she has developed repeatable, proven systems for earning attention, building trust, and getting people to care—across arts, entertainment, tech, and political campaigns. These results aren’t flukes; they’re methods she has refined, tested, and taught.

With a deep understanding of what travels online, she has repeatedly taken niche ideas to mass visibility, generating hundreds of original articles and broadcast features across dozens of countries, alongside millions of views for her content. (The logo grid shown here represents only a small sample of the press coverage her work has earned.)

Jessica builds highly engaged communities, not empty follow counts. She’s grown an 80k+ niche audience with unusually strong engagement and mobilized fans to fund projects instantly (1600% Kickstarter funding), show up, vote, buy, participate, and contribute content. She’s equally experienced reactivating dormant or legacy fanbases, and has been hired as a “fan expert” to help reboot and retool beloved franchises.

Her work blends instinct with analysis:

  • Audience research and behavioral insight

  • Competitive and SWOT analysis

  • Messaging and positioning for press, marketing, and sales

  • Narrative and opposition research strategy

  • Relationship-building with press, superfans, and key cultural gatekeepers

  • Viral mechanics: timing, trends, platforms, and distribution

  • In-person community building through collaborations, workshops, and live events

  • Turning public missteps into momentum through transparency, humor, and humanity

Jessica has taught these methods across North America and applies them directly in real-world projects to help teams break through crowded markets. If you’re building something ambitious and need people to notice, engage, and care, this is what she does best.
