Jess grew up on a cranberry farm on the Oregon Coast and moved to Bend shortly after graduating to attend Central Oregon Community College. There she received an AAS in Massage Therapy but realized that she had a passion in Early Childhood and started working with children. After 15 years of helping children learn and grow, she was ready to try a different path but still wanted to help people. She found herself at Therapeutic Associates working with a wonderful team helping to physically rehabilitate the Bend community.
Outside of the clinic, Jess loves rocking out to summer concerts and laughing it up at comedy shows with her fiancé.
