Jesse Unger

Head of Strategy
Mother

How her mother would describe her in one sentence: Jesse came into this world a force to be reckoned with, and we’ve been holding on for dear life ever since.

As a former high school mascot, Jesse has no shortage of passion. She will become your brand’s #1 fan, preaching the good word wherever she goes. Since leaving her hometown of 379 people, she’s worked at agencies across Chicago, Mexico City, and Los Angeles.

A failed creative who discovered strategy, she’s relentless about helping brands find their soul and connect that DNA to culture—never changing who you are but unleashing what makes you most magnetic. She’s helped brands like adidas, DIRECTV, Robinhood, and Sonic navigate changing categories and find their voice.
