Jess Wallace

I am a designer, cultural anthropologist, and participatory action researcher specializing in qualitative research, storytelling and cultural alignment. I seek to work with organizations aiming to generate joy, healing, and connection. My queer, bisexual, genderqueer identity as a white American influences my work. I prioritize decolonizing design and centering vulnerable communities.
