Hi, I’m Jenn—chief executive optimist.
I blend creativity, sustainability, and innovation to build purpose-driven brands that inspire change.
As an advisor, founder, and marketing strategist, I bring over 15 years in brand strategy, growth marketing, and team leadership to scaling innovative customer experiences and celebrated consumer brands.
As a consultant, I’ve worked with clients like Adobe, Diesel, and NBCUniversal, creating first-to-market campaigns that make an impact. But what I love most is creating change.
In 2018, I founded Sqwishful, an award-winning, plant-powered home care brand with a big mission: to clean up the cleaning aisle.
Redefining what’s possible, Sqwishful launched the first zero-waste sponge, sold 100K+ sponges in its first year of retail, and scaled to over 600 store locations through partnerships with Whole Foods, The Container Store, Erewhon, and others.
Recognized by The Wall Street Journal, Buzzfeed, Bon Appétit, and more, Sqwishful sets a new standard for sustainability in home care, inspiring a wave of eco-minded innovation in consumer goods and making it possible for households to participate in climate action by doing something as simple as the dishes.
For me, creating change starts with optimism. Being open to possibility, even believing in unlikely outcomes, is where all great ideas begin.
Beyond building brands, I write about finding joy in being an optimist in a bite-sized, monthly-ish email. I share my wins, lessons, and endless discoveries to help others find their own path to positive change.
If you’re looking to connect—whether it’s for a speaking engagement, consulting opportunity, or just to chat during my weekly office hours—I’d love to hear from you.
