With a background in theater and film production in New York and Austin, Jessica brings a wealth of experience to wedding planning. She has a working background in talent booking, venue management, and festivals. Her work at the Burning Man Festival in Black Rock City, Nevada influenced her unique perspective on cooperative planning and event management.

She is also supported by her father Fran, who is the business manager for 3 Of Cups Events. In her free time, Jessica enjoys driving her convertible Mustang around Austin and the Hill Country, listening to podcasts, and attending live storytelling shows, all the while savoring craft cocktails, good wine, and Austin’s best bites.
