Jess Pappas, MBA
VP of Account @ Soulsight
About
I'm a brand marketing strategist who has worked with Fortune 500 companies, scaled multiple businesses and mentored forward-thinking entrepreneurs to build brands that create real human connection, creating long term loyalty not just short-term profit. Over 20+ years, I've built expertise across business startups, global brand strategy, product innovation and visual identity development, talent and influencer marketing, and cultural social campaigns. I serve as VP of Account at Soulsight leading branding, innovation and strategy initiatives, and also co-manage Majors Management Group as Chief Partnership Officer, a cultural agency connecting talent to social creator campaigns for brands, services and experiences. My passion: I mentor entrepreneurs and career professionals on mindset, resilience and persevering. My 1-1 mentoring and career growth courses are made for those who feel like they were built for more but their circumstances, their past, or their own self-doubt talk them out of it. I help them build the career, the brand, and the mindset to rise to the highest version of themselves. I speak at universities, corporate events, and conferences on resilience, personal brand, and career growth. I've spoken at Columbia University, Columbia College Chicago, Stony Brook University, and Boston University. If you're looking for a speaker who has actually lived what she talks or a mentor who can help you build something real - let's connect.
