JACKIE SERVELLON

I feel things.
I make things.
All the way.

Food. Installations. Events. Community. Stages. Balloons. Design.

I don't do any of it halfway — and I never have.

I walk into a room and see what it can become.

Balloons, paper flowers, fringe, tablescapes. I design spaces that make people stop when they walk in. Beautiful when it calls for beautiful. Immersive when it calls for that. Spaces where every element is in conversation with the next.

The medium changes. The commitment doesn't.

The cakes.
Oh, the cakes.

I keep moving around them until something fits. Pastry-trained, detail-obsessed, and genuinely proud of every single one. I make food because feeding people is one of the most loving things I know how to do.

Making things with my hands is how I understand the world.

Paper flowers. Fringe backdrops. Screen-printed shirts with words that mean something. Crocheted pieces. Styled events that tell a complete visual story. Whatever the moment calls for - I go all the way.

I've built things starting from not much.
That's always been part of it.

Early life was hard in ways that shaped how I see everything. I've worked in re-entry spaces, spoken about trauma and healing, and shown up for communities that needed someone to build something. None of that is separate from the making. It's where the making comes from.

I speak.

Keynotes on trauma, creativity, and healing. 35K TikTok followers on re-entry. Featured on Brut. I've learned to tell the hard truth out loud.

I build.

Festivals. Nonprofits. Community programs. Youth work. Re-entry spaces. I put my whole self into the things that matter.

I connect.

I show up for people. In English, in Spanish, in a room full of balloons or on a stage telling the truth. Connection is the whole point of everything I make.

I trained as a chef because I needed to understand it from the inside - out

Croissants. Bagels. Babka. Pretzels. Laminated dough at 5am. I don't do things partially. I went all the way into food the same way I go all the way into everything else. The flavors still get me every time.

I'm probably
already
thinking about it.

Whatever brought you here - I'm open to it. Creative work, community, speaking, events, or something neither of us has named yet.
