Jessie is a true San Diegan, born and raised. She was a natural singer at a young age but developed her musical talents by playing the saxophone and flute. She has a B.A. in Music from Oberlin College and also B.S. in Engineering from Olin College. Funny enough, it wasn't until engineering school that she discovered a cappella, and has since been the director of several a cappella groups including the PowerChords (Olin College) and Premiere A Cappella (CAL Los Angeles).

Because of her multi-fasceted interests, Jessie works part time on a few endeavors including engineering and project management at a nonprofit environmental startup, private advanced math and science tutoring, and volunteer solar panel installation with GRID Alternatives. In her spare time she loves going to the beach with her husband and dog, playing pub trivia every Tuesday with friends, and collaborating on various musical pursuits!
