93 Octane

The best part of our work: meeting remarkable people and sharing their inspiring stories with the world! 💝🎥🌎 Yesterday, we spent the day at a video shoot for Saint Francis — Manchester. Working alongside bookend creative, the video features past and current organization leaders, staff, residents and their families. Collectively, their stories paint the picture of Saint Francis’ history and testify to its profound impact on Richmond’s low- to mid-income seniors. From conception to storyboard to yelling “action” on set, capturing these stories is truly a privilege and using our creativity for such a noble cause is a dream come true.

93 Octane is expanding our team! We are actively looking for an Account Manager/Copywriter who’s ready to roll up their sleeves and get to work.

What do you do with a rising star? Make sure she's got plenty of sky. When jenna weidner started at 93 Octane in 2010 as an intern, she quickly established herself as a conceptual force. Though we didn't have an opening, we knew a good thing when we saw it, and we created a part-time position just for her. It was a smart call. In the intervening 14 years, she's developed brands and campaigns for Maymont, EverBless, Virginia Victim Assistance Network, Cary Street Partners, Saint Francis — Manchester and scores of others, earning multiple promotions along the way. ✨ Today, we are thrilled to announce Jenna has been named Associate Creative Director. ✨ In addition to leading the creative development of key accounts alongside Founder and Creative Director John Lindner, she will take a strategic role in growing our talent pool, developing new business and focusing our growth. Avid puzzler and beer connoisseur Jenna has worked remotely from her office in Vermont since 2022, sharing it with her partner Erik and two miniature pups, Daphne and Frankie. Jenna loves exploring her new home, whether strolling along Lake Champlain, hiking Mount Philo, or cheering on her local Vermont Green soccer club. The perpetually cold Jenna has found a way to thrive in the chilly New England climate, largely thanks to her exceptionally warm and twinkling personality. Keep blazing, Jenna! ✨

We may only be a four-person shop, but we have an army of family, friends, and fans that magnify our impact. Today we celebrate someone who's all three rolled into one: Wendy Lindner! Equally quick with a smile or a tear, she pours her whole heart into everything she does. Every time she walks through our door, she reminds us of who we are and why we do what we do. Happy birthday Wendy! Thanks for celebrating with us, and for being a part of Team 93O. Now go home and take a nap!
