Hi everyone! I am a non-union assistant director and director living in the Chicago area. I just finished up a narrative feature film called Rain Beau's End for which I was the 1st assistant director. I got to work with a lot of crew members and producers who connected here on Stage 32. I am currently in the early stages of planning, finding funding and finding a EP for a documentary film about a woman who is currently living with MS, is a breast cancer survivor, does stand up comedy, is petitioning to legalize marijuana for at least medical use in her state, and has a podcast featuring LBGTQ issues and personal stories.
"BREAK A LEG!" with everything you are doing Jessica.
Wow, that's some story - inspiring!
Jessica! So awesome to see you here! Loved, loved, loved working with you on RBE!
32'ers, if you're in the Chicago area and need a first class 1st AD and a positive presence on your set, be sure to connect with Jessica!

@Jessica the documentary about a woman fighting against all odds is a cool quest and I have heard about the character in some news articles outside this thread.
