She has worked with Word Travels, The Red Room Company and WestWords as a Poetry Educator. A Social Worker and 2012 National Australian Poetry Slam (APS) Finalist, Jessica regularly "Teaches & Features" around the NSW slam scene, combining her love for personal development and creative writing in her rhythmically conversational performances.
