Influenced by satirical films and the absurdity of the mundane, Jessica tells stories of repressed characters unraveling. Her work blends emotional depth with biting wit and has screened at Academy-qualifying festivals like Cinequest, LA Shorts, and Dances With Films, and streaming on Prime She’s a 2025 Stowe Story Labs Fellow, a 2024 Alliance of Women Directors Rising Director Fellow, a 2024 Satellite Collective Fellow, and a 2023 Frieze LA Fellow with Endeavor Content, Ghetto Film School, and Fifth Season.
