Meet The People Who Turn “What If” Into “Wow”

  • Jessica Tener Founder and Creative Director

    Jessica Tener

    FOUNDER + CREATIVE DIRECTOR
    HEAD of CREATIVE CULTURE

    Second to being called, ‘Mom,’ Jessica loves pizza, coffee, and Disney. After earning her BFA in Graphic Design from Rochester Institute of Technology in 2009, she quickly discovered her passion for new business development. Jessica's 10+ year professional journey began at large agencies including Ketchum and Ogilvy, where she worked on creative and new business development for Fortune 100 companies. She has led creative efforts for Delta Airlines' social media marketing team and collaborated on projects for Hershey’s, Wendy’s, Walmart and Husqvarna.

    An espresso-fueled visionary, Jessica brings a non-traditional spark to graphic design and marketing. She thrives on the ever-shifting world of social media and embraces new technologies — but she’ll be the first to remind you: never underestimate the power of pencil to paper.

  • Lauren Billow

    GRAPHIC DESIGN + MARKETING

    Lauren blends a love for traditional art with an eye that’s laser-focused on what’s fresh, bold, and on trend. Her instinct for color is unmatched — whether she’s crafting a brand identity, shaping a motion graphic, or setting the vibe for a visual space.

    She draws inspiration from the playful curves of 1920s rubber hose animation and the punchy visual language of mid-century Pop Art — where bold lines and pop culture collide. A digital illustration lover through and through, Lauren knows when to click and when to sketch. Recently, she’s fallen in love with marketing and is going back to school to earn an additional degree, rounding out her creative toolkit.

    She’s into vintage comics, scary movies, and lives with two dogs: Monkey and Don Lino. One of them has a thing for butter — we’re not naming names.

    Favorite movie: Good Fellas

    Favorite board game: Trouble!

    Drink of choice: Long Island Iced Tea
