“A Day in the Life” with: Calgary Actor Jessica Jones

Jessica Jones has loved singing and dancing since she was born! Even as a little baby, I would find her singing in her crib in the mornings. She started dancing and singing in school clubs and extracurriculars when she was a young child, and she never stopped! Every time she moved on to something else, she would always come back to her performing. She has sung in church her whole life, and went to school to get her performing degrees. I always knew someday she would be on a big stage, and I am so proud to see the woman she has become!
