Summary
Jessica Graves is a founder and multidisciplinary data scientist who blends luxury fashion experience with machine intelligence, currently leading Sefleuria as Founder and Chief Interaction Designer. Over 11 years she has translated runway and product instincts from Oscar de la Renta and Ralph Lauren into personalization and production analytics for Fortune 500s, and has shaped ML product strategy at Fast Forward Labs and Microsoft Research. Her work uniquely bridges sustainable research at the University of Chicago, patented renewable-energy simulation, and applied ML for fashion tech—she also advised startups like Thread Genius (acquired by Sotheby’s). Based in London, she mentors, lectures, and invests across creative and deep-tech ecosystems, with residencies that highlight a practice-driven approach to research and dance. Not obvious at first glance: she combines patent-backed scientific computation with hands-on couture production knowledge to deliver human-centered, data-driven design systems.
