My Story

Jackie is an experienced director with a demonstrated history of successfully rolling out wellbeing programs to enterprise-wide clients.​ She began her career working under Dr. Michael Roizen, the Chief Wellness Officer at the Cleveland Clinic. Here, she moved from health coaching into a consultative role where she found her passion to help organizations improve overall population health. From there, Jackie became the Wellness Manager at a Cleveland based Fortune 100 company where she met her partner in Theory of Me. Her experience in managing from the employer level is what gives Jackie a unique consultative approach when helping our clients.

Off the Clock

​

Outside of work, Jackie stays active with her favorite outdoor activities, snow skiing and hiking. Her favorite ski run is Vail’s Lovers Leap in Blue Sky Basin, one that she “yard sale’d” down more times than she would like to admit before ever enjoying it! Her favorite hike is the Royal Arch in Boulder, Colorado. Despite clearly loving Colorado, her heart is in Cleveland with her partner Brandon and 3 boys Nolan, Bennett and Austin. When they aren’t at basketball and baseball games, you can find them hitting the local trails of the Metroparks and biking Towpath trail!

Fun Fact/Unique Skill:
