Tell us more about your job or company and what led you to your career?
I’ve been in social media for many years. When I first started, I worked with celebrities like Reba and Justin Timberlake. Eventually, I realized I wanted more freedom to spend time with my five children and my amazing husband.
I became an independent contractor, and my workload quickly grew — that’s when I founded WashTone Media. Since then, we’ve had the incredible opportunity to work with A-list celebrities, athletes, musicians, and more!
What would your clients say about you and your company?
Here’s what one of my clients said:
“Jayme knows how to get things done with an infectiously excited attitude… Success is all this woman knows, and I highly recommend her and WashTone.”

What is your secret weapon? An app, a tool, an organization method, anything?! (Can be a personal or professional life tool)
Using Google Drive — and taking advantage of everything it offers!
What is your most recent WIN? How are you slaying in your career or business?
I’ve had quite a few wins lately, but one of the biggest was being invited by Staples to host a sponsored workshop. I helped small business owners learn how to turn what they already know and love into thriving online businesses — a rewarding experience, especially as many were impacted by COVID-19.
I’m also a certified partner with Google and Facebook, staying on top of the latest trends. A huge personal win was my company earning $500K in one month!
What advice would you give to your younger self?
God has an amazing plan for your life. There will be ups and downs, but His hand of protection will always be on you.
And by the way — when you get to college and go to your first class, the guy named Brian sitting next to you? He’ll be your husband!
How do you enjoy your free time?
Spending time with my husband and kids.
What is something that not many people know about you?
I’m left-handed.
