Strategic communications, social, and content strategy for brands with something to say.
I help companies and leaders turn complex ideas into clear, human content across social media, executive thought leadership, and internal communications.
Studio Jess is a Glasgow-based communications and content studio working with UK and international brands, leaders, and teams.
What I Do
Social-first strategies and content plans that build awareness, engagement, and real business impact.
Build informed, connected teams through clear messaging and employee-first storytelling.
Position your leaders as trusted voices with content that inspires, educates, and drives influence.
From big ideas to big moments, I craft stories and campaigns that resonate and stick.

About Jess
I’m Jess, a Glasgow-based communications and content strategist with 13+ years of experience across internal communications, social strategy, executive thought leadership, employer brand, and audience-focused storytelling.
After building communications programs for high-growth US technology, retail, and culture brands, I now bring that experience to UK, Scottish, and international organizations through Studio Jess.
I’m also completing an MSc in Media, Culture & Society at the University of Glasgow, where I study audience behavior, digital platforms, trust, and how people make meaning in a noisy media environment.
