Welcome

I’m Jacqueline May, Founder of The Ambition Atelier and Co-Founder of Switch Media Marketing. For more than a decade, I’ve worked in performance marketing, helping companies grow through strategy, communication, and data-driven storytelling. I studied at St. John’s University earning a Bachelors in English and earned my M.S. in Communication from Pepperdine University—but believe it or not some of my most valuable lessons came long before then.

​

I grew up in a lower middle-class household with no connections, no network, and no roadmap. What I did have was grit, imagination, and an understanding that hard work and education were my way forward. Though I lacked access to wealth-building knowledge or the kinds of networking opportunities that open doors, I leaned on perseverance and critical thinking to carve my own path, eventually building a career, co-founding a business, and creating opportunities for myself that once felt out of reach.

​

That journey has since taken me across 28 countries and 40 U.S. states, shaping not only how I see the world but how I live within it. I’ve learned that wealth and luxury aren’t simply about money (money does help!) they’re about freedom, perspective, and intentionally designing a life you love.

​

Today, I’m still working to build wealth in my own life, and live a life of my own design, while sharing the lessons I’ve picked up along the way. As a wife, dog mom, and entrepreneur, I created The Ambition Atelier to help women see what’s possible—and to show that no matter where you start, you can create a life filled with opportunity, abundance, and yes, a touch of luxury.

​

With love & ambition,

Jacqueline
