Jesse Kankowski
President & CEO
As the President of Legend Web Works, Jesse is dedicated to building Legend Web Works by driving sales, developing strategic visions for the future, crafting actionable plans for success, and identifying new opportunities for growth. His leadership is characterized by a forward-thinking approach and a commitment to innovation, always seeking ways to grow the company.
A graduate of Kings High School, he attended Cincinnati State to pursue an associate degree in business. Although he initially stepped away due to a fear of public speaking (quite ironic given his current role), his career has since flourished, showcasing his ability to overcome challenges and grow both personally and professionally.
Jesse believes that any great deal starts with finding common ground, and he is especially proud of leading Legend Web Works through the COVID pandemic, during which the team size doubled. His leadership style is rooted in building strong relationships and fostering a positive, collaborative environment.
Outside of the office, he enjoys reading, watching movies (he's a big fan of Star Wars and Marvel), traveling with a goal to visit all 50 states, and spending quality time with his family. Originally from an 80-acre family farm in New Jersey, he is a loyal supporter of the NY Giants and Yankees and was an enthusiastic San Francisco 49ers fan in the 80s—after all, who doesn’t love Joe Montana and Jerry Rice?
Some memorable facts about him: he used to compete in Lego competitions as a kid, prefers ice-cold temperatures, and has a soft spot for Triscuits with cheddar cheese and extra toasty Cheez-Its!
