Deep down in my soul, I am an artist. I am a storyteller...
JESSICA DREW FUJIMOTO
Founder, CEO
J.Drew + Company
I am someone who seeks to bring out creativity in everything I do with one goal…to inspire. A blank page or canvas is my favorite place. The first line or brush stroke is always the scariest, but it is the start of something new and beautiful and BRAVE.
But I share a brain that has equal parts artist and strategist. I love a good ideation session, and I love bringing everything back around to ‘how do we get this done?’
Building things is my jam. I’ve built businesses, new programs and departments, ideation collectives, houses (9 and counting), furniture for my home, and so much more. And I can’t wait to help you build your next dream.
J.Drew was born out of my deepest desire to use what has been given to me—my experience, my skills, my passion, my voice, and my work—to enhance and improve the lives of the women and men around me. I want to help blossoming entrepreneurs, brands, nonprofits and YOU to dream, build and inspire others through the good work that you do.
For the last 13 years, I have worked with brands and causes I am deeply passionate about. I have worked for one of the largest and some of the smallest nonprofits, helping tell stories and engage peoples’ hearts in the mission of bringing economic and social change to people in need all around the world.
I have worked for creative marketing agencies advising clients on fundraising strategies, city-wide marketing and social media campaigns, and donor engagement technology solutions. I have worked in higher education developing programs that provide transparency to donors on their direct impact in the lives of thousands of students every year.
I also spent the last year on the ground floor of a small business helping bring their business (a full-service interior design studio) to the next level. Together, we built systems for project management, superior customer service, and a robust branded customer engagement strategy. We built new sales processes that targeted clients with budgets more than 2x that of their previous clients by focusing on contagious selling, giving customers a taste of the level of excellence they could expect throughout their time with the company.
Each layer of my career has been built upon my deepest desire to inspire those around me to their best work, and I would love to do the same for you.
