Jacqui Wishart

I've spent nearly 20 years building things. Right now I'm in a season of being intentional about what I build - and how.

I'm a maker and a grower. A systems thinker with a creative soul. A mom, a wife, a daughter, a friend - and a trusted advisor to those I get to work alongside. I am passionate about slow food, figuring out how things work, and I have two very opinionated dachshund-shaped shadows.

My Story →

The story behind the builder: decades of work, plus the family, the garden, the dogs, and everything that doesn't fit on a resume.

On and On →

Where I think out loud. On burnout, on AI, on gardening as meditation. On whatever's on my mind.

Collaborate →

If you're building something and think I might be able to help — let's chat, I'm always up for a challenge!
