“For there is always light, if only we’re brave enough to see it. If only we’re brave enough to be it.”  – Amanda Gorman

Jacqueline (Jackie) is a Central Illinois native who has called the metro Atlanta area home long enough to cheer hard for Atlanta teams and fully embrace college football. She brings extensive experience in B2B technology marketing and communications, having spent much of her career on the agency side before joining Appspace in 2022, where she focuses on strategic storytelling, communications, and market positioning.

She is a graduate of the University of Missouri–Columbia and has built her career helping technology companies connect more clearly with the people they serve.

Outside of work, she enjoys planning her next travel adventure with her husband, visiting her daughter in California, and getting lost in a good book, whether fiction or nonfiction.  She looks forward to helping Think Big for Kids grow its reach in Atlanta by bringing new ideas, partners, and community connections to this important mission.
