Welcome to my creative space.

My name is Jessie Kavana… but you can call me JKav.

By day, I work as the Art Director and Artist-in-Residence for the Brooklyn Nets & BSE Global.

Dreams came true in 2016 when I began working as a designer for an NBA team in my favorite city in the world. Nine seasons in, it’s still the dream job I always wanted.

Prior to landing at the Nets, I made stops at the Worldwide Leader in Sports (ESPN), the Phoenix Suns, IMG College, and Army West Point Athetics.

By night, I partner with world-class sports & entertainment brands, pro athletes, and anyone looking to amplify their company or project.

I specialize in energizing brands through intentional, bold, hand-made design solutions and custom artwork.

In 2020, I was honored alongside the industry’s best and brightest as part of Sports Business Journal’s New Voices (30 Under 30)

That year was… well, we all know. I was lucky enough to be able to celebrate something amidst everything that was happening.

And after years of designing for some of the biggest brands, one of the coolest things that ever happened to me was my personal artwork going viral.

A pandemic walk… led to an idea, led to…
