Jessica is part of the next generation of composers redefining the sound of modern cinema and television. Her music blends the emotional depth of orchestral storytelling with the texture of electronic and folk influences, creating a style that’s both cinematic and deeply human.

Her credits include Sony/Amazon’s Cinderella, directed by Kay Cannon, which became the #1 streaming film worldwide and earned Jessica her first BMI Award. She also scored the Jennifer Lawrence comedy No Hard Feelings, Ryan Murphy’s anthology series American Horror Stories, and Nicol Paone’s stylish crime caper The Kill Room, starring Samuel L. Jackson and Uma Thurman.

Jessica is currently composing the score for Focus Features’ drama Girls Like Girls, produced by Mark Platt, and Hulu’s upcoming comedy series Don’t Get High, from acclaimed showrunner Megan Ganz.

Her love of music began in her youth while studying ballet and theatre in New York City, eventually leading her to Warner Bros. Studios in London, where she was recruited by Hans Zimmer to apprentice at Remote Control Productions. After honing her craft as a music editor and additional composer, she found a pivotal mentorship under Academy Award– winning composer Mychael Danna.

An alumna of the Universal/DreamWorks Composers Initiative and a proud member of the Alliance for Women Film Composers, Jessica has had her music performed on stages around the world — from The Globe Theatre in London to The Joffrey Ballet in Chicago to The Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles.
