About Jessica

I am an actress and sketch comedy performer/writer, originally from NYC. I have recently relocated to Austin! For the last 7 years, I have worked on indie films, TV, theatre, and the web. I have performed live all over NYC with various sketch comedy teams, and studied improv at Upright Citizens Brigade and The Peoples' Improv Theater. I have also worked on the production side of several web series. I recently co-directed, co-wrote, co-produced a horror-comedy web series entitled "Disturbances" which will be released on Oct 13th, 2015.

And this time Fred can't help him; a long-lost secret has arisen in his life and that secret might put in danger the most precious thing he's got: His marriage with Cindy.

The Grape Dutches of York (2012)
Television (Comedy) Actress, Writer The Grape Dutches of York are a sketch comedy troupe, based out of Astoria, NY. The Dutches first came into existence back in 2008, when it was a small 5 man group with a passion to make stupid shorts. These 5 set out to make up sketches that they found inappropriate and funny. But with time, jobs, other projects, and social obligations, the group fell by the wayside. Only to be revived again in late 2011 as a larger troupe, the newly re-formed Dutches were resurrected with some original members and added a great cast of characters. This incarnation of the Dutches has the same goal: to make sketches that they find funny, off-centered, and slightly edgy. Written by Grape Dutches
