About

Creative leader, designer, team builder, ideas person with 17+ years of experience helping brands tell their stories in differentiated and breakthrough ways.

Currently the Director of Brand Design & Creative at Webflow, where I lead an exceptionally talented team responsible for bringing the Webflow brand to life across different mediums.

My skills as a designer, creative, and leader have been shaped by working across notable companies in advertising and tech: Crispin Porter & Bogusky, Twitter, Cloudflare, and MURAL to name a few. I live in Austin, TX with my husband, 4 kiddos, and 3 doggos

Speaking

2023

Jessica Rosenberg is one of the most inspiring creative leaders that you’ll find in tech. Having cut her teeth as a creative in the ad agency world, she had a brief spell in startup-land before her career really took off through spells at Twitter, Cloudflare, Mural and now Webflow, where she leads the brand design team.Leading teams like Jessica’s has multiple challenges. How do you structure the team for optimum results? How do you keep them motivated? How do you get great work done remotely? How do you collaborate with other teams? And how do you create an environment where these uber-talented, uber-creative individuals feel inspired to show up and do their best work every day? Dave chats with Jessica to explore how she solves these challenges on a daily basis, using her vast experience and expertise to empower her team to deliver consistently outstanding work.
