Kaleidoscope Core TEAM
Jessi
CEO and Founder
Growing up as a TCK in Uzbekistan, Jessi felt a deep need for people in her life who understood the balance of multiple cultures and the tension of significant loss paired with deep friendship. Not to mention how to navigate fashion and pop culture in American 7th grade! Her B.A. in Intercultural Studies with an emphasis in Third Culture Kids gave her the tools to found Kaleidoscope and pivot as needed over the last ten years! She and her partner, Steph, live in Massachusetts with their wiener dog, Puddin (TCK Club’s unofficial mascot) where she channels all of her creative energy into renovating their new home and finding new ways to connect with TCKs virtually and in person.
Chat with Jessi about internships, consulting, TCK training and basically anything else!
JacoB
club operations manager
While Jacob is technically not a TCK, he has accumulated nearly 2 decades of cross-cultural experience, including more than 3 years of traveling around the world full-time with his wife and 2 kids. That experience serves him well in his administration and communications roles with TCK Club.
When he is not working to make sure all of Club's moving parts line up, Jacob also writes for his website, the Neverending Field Trip, where he documents his family's travels and encourages other families to try educational travel for themselves.
Hannah
communications and Curriculum development
Hannah grew up as a TCK in Nairobi, Kenya and is now using that experience abroad to help us find great resources to share with families around the globe. When she can’t find what she’s looking for her, it’s her job to take her ideas for helping TCKs and make them real!
When she’s not creating awesome new resources, you’ll find her snuggling up with a coffee, watching movies, or reading books.
Cora
Executive assistant
Cora grew up as a TCK in Mexico, and first got connected with KLDSCP when she took TCK101. A few years later, she came back and joined the team as a TCK Club Leader, and is now working as the Executive Assistant. She loves getting to know other TCKs and hearing their unique stories. In her free time, she likes to listen to music and play violin and ukulele, and her favorite go-to coffee order is a mocha frappe!
