Jessica Lam — Co-Founder
Hey! I'm Jess, a recent UCLA grad spending my gap year living in a content/founder house🌴 surrounded by creators, entrepreneurs, and innovators. I’m using this time to build my personal brand, grow my newsletter The Side Hustle Edit, and help early-stage startups develop their marketing through UGC, influencer, and college ambassador programs. 💡 My background spans the intersection of tech, marketing, and creativity. During college, I gained hands-on experience at companies like Waymo, Adobe, Amazon, and several AI startups in the education, entertainment, and productivity spaces. Those experiences taught me how to connect product strategy, user behavior, and storytelling to create impact. 📲 Beyond tech, I’ve built a portfolio as a content creator, collaborating with 150+ brands and working in over 40 college ambassador specific programs across lifestyle, education, and tech. I love helping brands bridge creativity and strategy — whether it’s crafting UGC that converts or building authentic community-driven campaigns. 🔗Always down to connect with founders, creators, or marketers building cool things. 📩 PR/Collabs: jess@mycliqk.com 💌 Consulting/UGC/Freelance/Coaching: 12jesslam@gmail.com
