Jack Downs

I’m Jack.

As a Strategist at Part and Sum, I help clients better understand their customers and their business through diligent research, design thinking, and creativity.

Over the course of seven years, Jack has worked with clients of many shapes and sizes including non-profits, startups, and Fortune 500 companies. He applies his curiosity and malleability to uncover audience insights, brand truths, and opportunities for growth and innovation.

Some of Jack’s achievements include doubling a non-profit’s donations year-over-year, helping international clients successfully expand to the US, and overhauling healthcare communications to empower seniors to better access holistic, preventative care.

Jack loves strategy particularly for the opportunity to work directly with stakeholders and consumers. Whether through an interview, workshop, or focus group, learning about others’ unique experiences and perspectives is his favorite part of any project.

"Bolting on means becoming a true partner to a client team. Of course that means producing excellent work, but it also means real relationship building. In any project, we aim to bring our expertise and the flexibility, respect, and warmth that make for the most rewarding partnerships.”
