Jessica Gemond

Born and raised in the beautiful Virginia countryside, Jessica grew up playing outside alongside her 4 brothers, soaking in the majority of life’s lessons from the ‘school of hard knocks’. Post-high school, she attended Christopher Newport University in Newport News Virginia, but after being accepted at the University of Arizona to study Architecture, decided to completely up-root and relocate to sunny Arizona. What started as a temporary move, turned into a seven-plus year rollercoaster of self-discovery, growth, and adventure. And as the saying goes, “If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans”, as she found herself instead, studying business and working in education. Although grateful for the experience, she is thrilled to now be diving headfirst into the creative and dynamic world that initially called her out to the desert years prior.

Her passion comes from the deeply seeded belief in the potential of people and the power of thinking outside of the box. To empower those around her to think bigger and dig deeper.

Outside of work, you can find her spending time with friends and family, reading, painting, weight lifting, playing soccer, exploring, or just shooting the breeze and striving to live every day as if it is the best day ever. If it sounds like it will make for a good story down the road, count her in.

Her superpower: Having zero fear
