Jessica was born and raised in San Jose, California. She attended Foothill Community College in Los Altos, CA and graduated with an Associate Degree in Veterinary Technology in 2014. She had worked in general practice for 5 years, when she decided to make the move into Emergency and Critical Care medicine and never looked back. After wanting to move to the Pacific Northwest for years, she finally made the move in 2022. Her favorite thing about working in the ER is the wide array of cases that come in, and no day is ever the same. She especially enjoys learning and teaching new skills. During her spare time Jessica enjoys reading, hiking, crafting, cooking and watching San Jose Sharks hockey. She also enjoys spending time with her Pittie mix Finn and her mischievous cat Baby.
