Jess grew up being infatuated with true crime stories. She read one crime book after the next and would write murder mysteries that she would demand her parents friends read and tried to solve. Her dad was in law enforcement and that added fuel to her interest. But she also always loved a good party so it only makes sense that one day, she would start a true crime podcast that included cocktails!! Jess was born in San Diego, California on St Patrick's Day, so make sure to have a green beer in her honor each year! She has since lived in San Francisco, Montana, Washington DC and now Richmond, Virginia. She spent her career working in Broadcast Media Advertising.  Jess also hosts REOPEN THE CASE which is a non-profit organization that focuses on cold cases in Virginia and River City Podcast which feature  businesses and non-profits that are a part of her community. She is the Pisces surrounded by her powerful co-hosts that are a strong Taurus / Scorpio mix!
