Welcome to Alexandra Jacoby’s website.

about : Alexandra Jacoby

Artist, researcher, Alexandra Jacoby’s primary motivation has always been creating space for conversations we don’t usually get to have. For much of her career, she’s been fitting her art and community work around hands-on operations leadership roles, where she has generated stability and increased team capacity for orgs in a range of industries and business types. Her sweet spot is in early stage startups and customer/investor/community-facing projects, where a systematic, yet responsive approach to internal operations (i.e. workflows, data management, team communication, reporting and documentation) can make all the difference, not just to the outcomes but to company quality of life. More on this in Operations.

Jacoby’s art and community work often focuses on health and wellbeing, including: vagina vérité (a 10-year documentary photography project & book (so women could see ourselves for ourselves), The Bodylife Library Lab and other co-created art-and-conversation experiences, individual listening sessions, pandemic lockdown living room picnics and love study halls, and Small town in the city (hyperlocal neighbor gatherings). More on this in Projects, Art.
