Words from past partners, students, & collaborators

 

“I really enjoyed hearing everything Jezz said, and I couldn't help but think of a quote from Einstein: “Genius is taking the complex and making it simple." Sometimes conversations about inclusivity can be difficult to put into words, but Jezz is able to put them in a very conversational, easily-understood manner. I think that is a gift they have: making difficult conversations amazing to hear.”

Strategy Director at The Marketing Arm
 

“I loved the interactive-ness of this workshop. It allowed us to stay engaged which I often have a hard time doing in online talks. The frameworks Jezz provided are something I’ll be referencing to keep building upon!”

Creative director in “Design Your Future” workshop 
 

“Jezz has been through so many different paths so when they write and speak, I know they’ve been there. It makes me want to listen more. Their work feels like one friend talking to another friend and it’s something people are wanting to hear.”

So A Ryu, designer and accessibility advocate

“The most wondrous thing for me is to see someone wholly aligned with their purpose. And there’s no denying that Jezz most certainly exemplifies that perfect alignment. Their purity of spirit, grace, and willingness to share so vulnerably while confronting hard truths has impacted so many others. Their voice is a necessary one in bringing acceptance, embrace and healing to much that is broken. I’m proud to bear witness to their impact.”

Soon Mee Kim, Global Diversity Equity Inclusion Officer, Omnicom PR Group
 

“Jezz is a multi-hyphenate creative who shares their lived experiences and learnings with profound purpose. They create spaces for folks to be in constant desire to gather and live in co-creation. When I'm in a space with Jezz, I feel that I am receiving affirmations that not only make me feel whole but remind me that I'm complex and nuanced - they see the human and all of their varying parts. Their gift as a creative equity facilitator (among many other things) is sustainable, transformative, and deeply influential.”

Christofer Medina

“Jezz is someone who truly embodies equity. What they have to share is what this industry needs to move into the future in a unified way.”
