Jessica is a New Jersey based fusion dance teacher and performer. Her dance background includes roots in lyrical, jazz, and American Cabaret Belly Dance. She is also a Level 1 ITS (Improv Team Sync) Certified Instructor. She and her dance partner / dance wife for life have performed together throughout the tri-state area and along the east coast as their fusion duo, "The Gerudo Vagrants."
Jessi considers herself the “Internet Mom Friend.” As a spoonie, she advocates for herself and others with invisible illnesses (mostly on the internet in some random comment section.) When she isn’t dancing, she loves to complain about Overwatch, play Devil May Cry, read, draw, paint her nails, and cosplay crunch. In her “real life”, Jessi works full time managing a team of audio and web engineers.
