She danced professionally with TUPACO Dance, Lori Belilove, High Jinx, Anna and the Annadroids, and the Backspace Performance Ensemble. In 2009, Jessica moved to NYC to continue dancing for Backspace and developed more collaborations with companies like Amy Campbell's Crooked Mouth Dance Company and Davon Chance Dance. After 5 years, she moved to L.A. and became the choreographer for Fugitive Kind Live Theater under the direction of Ovation award-winning director Amanda McCraven. Jessica performed in the ensemble and choreographed dances for Shine Darkly, Illyria, and also co-produced and performed in Fugitive's first full-evening dance work My Sister was the First to Fly. Since moving back to Ohio, she has completely fallen in love with the Cleveland Dance Project! Not only has she choreographed and danced for CDP, she has also become the Assistant Director and fully enjoys helping the organization evolve. Jessica's dance studies and professional experience have culminated to form her dynamic and sometimes quirky contemporary style, and she hopes to continue to foster her artistic and administrative voice. When she is not making magic with CDP, Jessica is teaching vinyasa and prenatal yoga, and enjoying time with her husband and new baby girl.
