About The SavvyBostonian

Thank you so much for visiting The SavvyBostonian!  My name is Jessica Gioglio and I created The SavvyBostonian in 2006 as a forum to share my thoughts, tips, and adventures around Boston and beyond. After living in the Boston-area for 14 years, I moved to London in January 2015 and as a result have expanded my blog focus to cover my life in London, travels, recipes and other adventures.

 Interested in Pitching The SavvyBostonian?

If you’re interested in pitching my blog, I do welcome pitches to savvybostonian@gmail.com, but will caution PR people that I do have a full-time job in addition to running this blog.  I do my best to respond and only feature businesses, events and products that I have a strong affinity to. Please take extra care when submitting pitches and keep them relevant to my blog. For companies, please pitch personally – if I see that you’ve subscribed me to your newsletter or are spamming me in mass, irrelevant pitches, I will block and/or unsubscribe. I started my career out in PR, so not only do I know better…but c’mon, you do too ;).

 What Do I Cover?

Many of the things I enjoy end up being featured on my blog.  While I will always be a Bostonian at heart, I live in London now and as a result, you’ll find content here related to my travels, life in London, favorite recipes and fab finds. For my readers who loved all of my Boston content, fret not – I still get back throughout the year and will be sharing posts about what’s new and notable.

Professional Background

Professionally, I work in digital and social media.  I’ve always had a passion for storytelling and content development and am the co-author of two books. Our first book, The Power of Visual Storytelling, is an inspiring and hugely useful book on how to leverage images, videos and other visuals on social media to market your brand. Our most recent book, The Laws of Brand Storytelling, is the definitive guide on how to tell the stories that matter for your business. For more of my business content, blog posts and talks I give at conferences, you can visit my website, JessicaGioglio.com.

Fun fact: I actually became involved in social media by running this blog and developing corporate blogs for companies (check out my story).
