Jessica is a queer, neurodivergent visual artist, specializing in papercutting and block printing. Inspired by folklore and the stories that shape us, she builds nested narratives, using interplay of light and shadow to create silhouettes that weave animal, earthly, and cultural elements to reveal the quiet truths of our shared humanity. 

Beyond her studio, Jessica is dedicated to environmental and human‑centered advocacy, using art as a catalyst for empathy, awareness, and collective care. She trains executive leaders to understand the lived impact of their decisions, emphasizing resiliency, adaptability, and cultural competency. Whether guiding organizations or carving stories, her work centers the same belief: transformation is most powerful when it honors people, stories, and the environments that sustain us.

Jessica connects deeply with nature through tactile experiences, and enjoys learning the etymologies of all things. They spent much of their childhood in trees and libraries, where they still feel at home.
