Jessica Chaloux

Author Headshot

Fresh out of college in the summer of 2017, Jessica Chaloux started at Fine Homebuilding as a video intern and never left. While video editing was her original role, she has evolved to tackle many tasks, most recently taking on the position of Special Projects Editor where she works with the FHB editorial team as well as producing custom print, video, and digital content. With a BA and MA degree in multimedia production/journalism, Jessica enjoys taking on new challenges, especially if it involves a camera.
