090 - Jillian Meehan

Jillian Meehan is a Project Manager at Lickability, a small software studio in New York.

She also writes a biweekly newsletter called Letters To Summer with her best friend about what they’re reading, watching, listening to, and enjoying.

And just in case you like snacking (who doesn’t?), she also created a zine about snacks featuring original essays, poetry, and illustrations that explore the universal experience of snacking. It is appropriately called snax.
