Random Quotes from "Happy Clients":
* Below are just random quotes lifted from various e-mails Jessica has received
from clients (not formal endorsements). Perhaps, if you are a client, you will
recognize a one. Jessica is always happy, and a little bit flattered, to receive nice
reviews from clients. Here’s what clients have written to her:

“Thanks for the great session yesterday.” (recieved many times)

“ I wish I was here yesterday to have met you ... next time! I
heard the session went great.”

“HI Jessica, we want to thank you for your wonderful work
today. We laughed and smiled so many times with your
charming and endearing "little boy voice". Thank you for
being so easy to work with and so reliably focused and
patient. And thank you for making our songs come alive.
Looking forward to working with you again soon.”

But where did Jessica come from you might ask
and how did she get into voice over?

Jessica was born & raised in Los Angeles by first generation
European parents (a German & a Swedish speaking Finn). As a
kid, she drew cartoons for all the kids on the block, directed
all the important shows and starred herself in them. Thus,
being in the arts was an obvious career choice. Jessica began
her acting training at UC Santa Barbara where she received a
BFA in Theater Arts, graduating with high honors. Jessica
loved college because she was doing what she loved! She also
had fond memories of her training at ACT's Summer Intensive
Program (San Francisco, Ca). And, her most intense acting
training was actually in LA, doing voice & movement classes
with Lenonidas Ossetynsky (Grotowski method). Jessica
enjoyed a stage and on-camera acting career in Los Angeles,
including performing shows on many well-known LA stages.
She was a long time member of the Odyssey Theater's
Children's Theater Company, "The Glorious Players", where she
performed numerous characters for family audiences. All
those characters needed work that paid, so it only made sense
that Jessica landed in the wonderful world of voice over,
where you don't have to look the part, you just have to "act" .
Towards the end of her stage career, Jessica was honored to
be a member at the Met Theater while under the direction of
Holly Hunter, Beth Henley& Amy Madigan. Even though just
loved the stage (not much Equity Theater here in LA), Jessica
found her true calling was voice over....being a character
actress the jobs in voice over were endless, fun and she didn't
have to look fabulous all the time. You just have to FEEL
fabulous...which was a given 'cause the job is so much fun!

FUN FACTS FOR FANS (and those who are curious):

Just a few personal tidbits for Fans and those who just want to
know more….

Besides loving and truly appreciating the voice over work and
fan base she has received over the past several years, Jessica
also loves the outdoors, travel, numerous sports including
snow skiing, hiking, roller blading, swimming in natural, large
bodies of water and just being outside in nature. She also is an
animal lover, writer, voice over teacher (please see tab
"Jessica's Creative Voice Over Lessons") reader and enjoys
meditation on a daily basis.

Jessica’s greatest personal influence: Opa (grandfather in
German) who gave Jessica the courage & inspiration to go
beyond her conservative up-bringing live out her dreams. Hans
Straus led a very interesting, rags-to-riches life which inspired
and touched many people.

Jessica's favorite quote (one of 'em):

” Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who
mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.“

- Dr. Seuss
