In her elementary years, Jessica participated in many school productions and choir performances, including performing at the Calgary Zoo Lights two years in a row and the Sing Festival. She attended a fine-arts school in junior high, in which she pursued her passion for acting, alongside dancing, singing, and sketching. In 2014, Jessica worked on her first credited short project, followed by the opportunity to portray Olivia in a feature film. Since then, Jessica has had the pleasure of modeling for a various brands and photography companies, as well as have had the chance to meet many well-known actors/directors in the Alberta film industry. She is best known for playing Mary in Super Drycleaners (2017). Following the TV series, Jessica took a break from filming to focus on her post-secondary studies in Emergency and Disaster Management and Bachelor of Science in Nursing, but can still be found in local projects here and there. Jessica has come a long way since 2014, and she constantly leaves many commenting on her thoughtful, caring and out-going personality.
