Helping leaders find out who they are when the scoreboard goes dark.
Jessy combines years in high-pressure environments with deep expertise in performance psychology and team dynamics, bringing both warmth and directness to every conversation.
Working with Jessy means having a thinking partner who won’t let you off easy. She’s equal parts warm and direct, challenging you to look at your patterns honestly and connect the big picture to your day-to-day. Her philosophy is simple — strategically balance short-term momentum with your team’s long-term development.
Jessy started her career as a proprietary trader, where performance lives on a screen and mistakes cost real money. That experience taught her what actually holds up under pressure — and led her to focus on building it in other people instead. She later built Splunk’s team effectiveness program from scratch, designing a working framework with practical tools, playbooks, and training products that managers genuinely used.
She’s coached 80+ leaders across 400+ hours, including long-term engagements with construction leaders across departments. She also co-teaches Team Dynamics at Northwestern University, translating current research into tools leaders can actually apply.

When she’s not coaching, Jessy fosters dogs, coaches her kids’ soccer team, and hosts a podcast on leadership.
