My name is Jennifer Jasso. I am a proud Latina born and raised in Chicago. I am a recent first-generation graduate from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Advertising along with a certification in Media Sales. As a fellow of the 2019 Multicultural Advertising Internship Program (MAIP), I had the opportunity to work at Giant Spoon as an intern strategist. Here, I had the opportunity to work on some really cool tech clients helping develop case studies and trends for an experiential situation analysis to diving into complex audience research. I was also able to embed myself into Giant Spoon’s first-ever Diversity and Inclusion Council and gave an office-wide presentation on multiculturalism and representation. I wrapped up my summer with being awarded the 2019 MAIP Fellow of the Year and am currently working towards my next steps.

Outside of work, my passions include exploring and advocating for my own culture and others, dancing, going to concerts, and creating short funny videos with my friends and family. I love working with others and collaborating to create amazing stories and experiences!
