Performer. Comedian. storyteller.
Hi there! I'm Jessica or Jess or Jessi - your choice.
I'm an Orlando, Florida based Actress with a BFA in Musical Theatre and a minor in Dance from Ohio Northern University. I love to do everything within the arts - acting, singing, dancing, improv, stand-up comedy, song-writing, film, piano, and writing. Probably some others I'm forgetting too.
Not only do I love to do many things within the theatre, but I also enjoy multiple styles of performing. I've played the golden age ingenue Irene Malloy from Hello Dolly, the disabled war veteran Jess from Ugly Lies the Bone, the wacky suspects from Murder for Two, and many different princesses for Briar Patch Princess Parties. If it's an acting challenge I'm all over it.
One might say I'm a combination of Julie Andrews and Ryan Reynolds. Weird combo, I know, but it makes sense if you know me. These aspect combine to make my superpower be bringing seemingly mundane characters to life in brand new ways.
When I'm not performing you can find me painting, lightsaber battling my friends, paddleboarding, and watching movies! Check out my about me page if you just can't get enough of me ;)
