Bree Sposato, Vice President of Content at M Booth

“Jessen is a gem, and I know that better than anyone—we’ve been drivers of a dynamic, award-winning creative team for five years. I’m the creative lead of RCI’s two flagship publications, Endless Vacation magazine and RCI Ventures magazine, which Jessen helps steer as the Associate Editor. Deeply loyal and ambitious, Jessen is supremely talented. She is an excellent manager (visionary, empathetic, hyper-organized) and a masterful features writer, who moves fluidly between print and digital platforms. A sharp strategic thinker and a natural problem-solver, Jessen is a pro at translating a brand’s business objectives into compelling creative content of the highest editorial standards. Editors and writers adore her upbeat energy, and she possesses that most valued of skills—she knows what I’m going to ask for or need without me having to say a word and sometimes even before I do. I’ve often thought that she’s my other brain. While Jessen is whip-smart and contributes forward-thinking on every project she touches, she does not scramble for credit. She is discerning about her opportunities and has an admirable social conscience, and is therefore humble and graceful in service of what she has deemed as the greater good—and therein lies one of the more unique aspects of her power. I enjoy every minute of our time together, as does everyone who crosses her path. She’s truly one to watch.”
