Biography

Jesse grew up in Victoria B.C, Canada. After several years of getting taller, she finished high school at Claremont Secondary in 2013. She graduated two years early with a 4.0 GPA, because she's a huge nerd. Since then, she has moved to Vancouver, and is working and training in film, television, and theatre. Jesse enjoys things like reading, tap dancing, and singing in her spare time. Also, just for fun, Jesse and her two friends, Tiarra Sulyk and Athena Russell created, wrote, produced, and directed a webseries called Almost Actors under the Bitchpop Productions umbrella. Almost Actors will start filming season 2 in September 2015.
