Hello and welcome! I’m Jessica.

I’m a leading journalist, lifestyle writer, and beauty expert. My specialties have followed my interests and include wine/spirits, culture, travel, and, of course…beauty. As a former beauty editor, I now explore the industry through various media outlets (Beauty Independent, The Zoe Report, ESSENCE, Coveteur, etc.), industry committees, and brand consulting.

​

I enjoy telling stories, whether it be about brands or industry leaders and am always looking to expand my footprint as a writer. I’ve recently begun a small newsletter called The Beauty Stand, which serves as a creative outlet for musings on the industry. 

​

Outside of writing, you can probably find me sipping wine somewhere (preferably in a vineyard) or looking for more little green plants to fill my home in Brooklyn.
