About
Hi, I'm Jess Ahn, a go-to-market operator and builder from San Francisco.
Previously, I was a consultant at Bain and Accenture. And before that, I was a multiple subjects teacher in Los Angeles.
The problems I saw in education were big and messy and I didn't know how to think about it all. So I went into consulting and came out with a way to find the shape of ambiguous problems. I've since been working inside businesses and the work I love most is taking something a company has built that's awesome and getting it into the hands of more of the people it's for.
I love wandering, understanding why people are the way they are, house tour vlogs and motion picture soundtracks (Oppenheimer, Interstellar).
