Content Cucumber has a plethora of talented writers at the helm. As we progress toward leaning into the capabilities of AI-powered tools, we aim to enhance our content creation. Because our writers usually operate behind the scenes, we wanted to showcase aspects of their unique personalities, hobbies, and qualifications.
For Part 1 of a (hopefully) multi-part segment, we’ll highlight five of our writers, along with the AI-generated images they’ve created to represent themselves in some fashion.
Keep reading to meet Caitlin Monesmith, Eric Ellis, Jennifer Wallace, Julian Dietzel, and TJ Vasquez.

Jennifer Wallace
An avid creative writer, Jennifer spent the year post-pandemic processing her feelings through poems, writing up to three poems a day. A fan and participant in many forms of artistic communication, she enjoys the “Jenaissance” through artwork, writing, playing music, theater, and dancing (though dance is the weakest part of her skill set, she does it often).
Her favorite clients are typically marketing clients, especially those with similar interests and worldviews. Some of her goals are to live joyfully, serve well, and be a “hype person” for her clients, writing team, and co-workers while supporting her family and living a quiet and peaceable life despite her loud, theater-nerd tendencies. Jennifer lives with her amazing husband and three phenomenal children, all of which she doesn’t deserve but is grateful to have. She drinks boba tea and blasts Christian metal, Weird Al, and anything written by Lin-Manuel Miranda when she’s not working.
