About Us

Story Behind Our Logo

Our logo is thoughtfully designed to represent each aspect of our team. The mountains and trees symbolize our love for the outdoors, while the rocks and dirt highlight our passion for off-roading.

The green Jeep, belonging to the driver Jessi, signifies our 3rd teammate, and the name 'Jess² (Squared) reRouting' reflects both our names and our adaptability during the rally.

The pink star at the top represents Jessica, the navigator, and the compass symbolizes the core of the Rebelle Rally—mastering navigation, dead reckoning, and land observance to reach each checkpoint.

Together, our logo captures our spirit of adventure and teamwork.

  • Daily Improvement: Strive to do our best each day, learning from and building on the previous day's experiences to continually improve.

  • Open Communication & Support: Ensure every team member feels heard and supported by fostering open communication and providing what each person needs to perform at their best.

  • Focus on the End Goal: Keep the ultimate goal of completing the rally in mind, staying adaptable and united as a team to overcome challenges along the way.

2025 Team Goals

Jessi competed in the 2020 and 2023 Rebelle Rally and is gearing up for her third Rebelle Rally as the driver in 2025. Whether guiding trails for Jeep Jamboree Big Bear or teaching recovery classes, Jessi’s mission is to empower and inspire others, especially women, to explore the outdoors.

Jessica has always been passionate about off-roading, mapping, and navigating. From a young age, she was exploring backroads with her family, learning to offroad before even getting her license. She’s been captivated by the challenge of navigating remote places and enjoys diving into the details of planning every journey.

With a deep love for adventure and strategy, Jessica has become an invaluable asset to her team. This is her second Rebelle Rally as a navigator, after placing 4th as a rookie team in 2023.
