Jessica Tormey is a proven leader and entrepreneur, with her most recent success founding the Wisconsin Idea Group (WIG) in 2020 which serves diverse clients at the local, state, national, and international level.

Over the course of her career, she has served in several Chief of Staff roles where she was known for her expert ability to implement CEO/organizational agendas.
