Jackie Stelling
CO-CHAIR | SECRETARY
DIRECTOR OF HERDING CATS
Jackie Stelling is a Founder of Brand Action and serves as Co-Chair and Secretary for the non-profit organization. Jackie brings her love of event-planning (and her type-A tendencies) to her role with Brand Action, overseeing the planning, preparation, and orchestration of fundraising events and keeping the organization’s "trains running on time.” In addition to her work with Brand Action, Jackie is the owner of JMS Legal, a U.S. intellectual property boutique firm that specializes in trademark clearance and prosecution. Her clients include foreign law firms and businesses of all sizes and stages. Jackie is an active member of several organizations and serves on INTA’s Public Information Committee and ECTA’s Publications Committee. When she’s not doing trademark work or volunteering with Brand Action, you’ll likely find Jackie with a camera in hand or sneakers on her feet, satisfying other passions and striving to keep the balance.
“I am active in Brand Action because, for me, it combines several passions while making a positive impact in the world. I have the privilege of helping to bring together members of our incredible global trademark community for fun events while doing some good for those in need. And we’ve created an amazing team of volunteers who care deeply, work hard, and make each other laugh!”
