Owning Manhattan’s Jessica worked with Kim Kardashian in her first job after college!
Kim co-founded the company before selling it
You wouldn’t think Kim K had a part to play in Owning Manhattan star Jessica’s first big girl job! Well, after Jessica left college, and years before she started selling multi-million dollar homes under Ryan Serhant‘s real estate firm, she was head of communications elsewhere.
Basically, Jessica was in charge of Screenshop, an app that Kim co-founded and sold to Snapchat in April 2021. The app allowed users to identify and shop for items seen in photos, by leveraging artificial intelligence to match clothing and accessories to a database of products.
You could shop screenshots of fashion products directly from your Snapchat memories and luckily, Kim had Jessica on hand to help make that happen. Through her work on this major project, Jessica built up a huge social media following online.

She was voted social influencer of the year, so it’s clearly been paying off! She told Loammi: “Right out of college, my first job was Head of Communications for Screenshop, a company founded by Kim Kardashian. My role consisted of working with content creators.”
They worked on the project by asking them to Beta test the product and insure a successful product launch for the company. Jessica added, “As a content creator, I was asked to create content for a real estate brokerage. I quickly fell in love with real estate.”
She explained how the brokerage that she worked for asked that she came on full-time as an agent and continued to say: “As a real estate agent, I was contacted by Ryan Serhant, who asked me to join his brokerage and the Netflix show. The rest is history!”
And Jessica learned a lot from working under Kim K. She said, “Working under Kim Kardashian, I learned that to connect with audiences, you need to present yourself as a human being and not just as a businessperson. This has allowed me to reach a much broader audience.”
