Oh hey! I'm Jess — a little awkward, a lot creative, and 100% obsessed with dinosaurs.
Welcome to Jess A Rex! I'm Jess (short for Jessica, though let’s be real — if someone calls me that, I’m probably in trouble). I’m so glad you found your way to my little corner of the internet.
So, what’s with the name?
“Jess A Rex” started as a long-running family joke I couldn’t shake — and eventually, I didn’t want to. When I was younger (okay, I'm a little better now, but still), I was super shy and really not into hugs. One day, my dad leaned in for a hug, and I awkwardly waddled toward him with my arms tucked in like a T-Rex. Classic move. Ever since, “Rexy” stuck — and I figured, why not turn that into something fun?
Also, let’s be real: I’ve always been a massive dino nerd. So the name? Totally tracks.
When I’m not being lovingly roasted for my T-Rex arms, I’m deep in creative chaos — painting, sculpting, making jewelry, 3D printing, and dreaming up about five new projects at once. Art is my passion, my therapy, and my favorite kind of mess.
This shop has been a dream in the making for years, and I’m beyond excited to finally share it (and my work!) with you. So take a look around, get comfy, and I hope you find something that makes you smile, laugh, or go, “Yep, that’s so me.”
Thanks for being here. You’re kind of a big deal!
— Jess
