Fun Fact: Jet autocorrects to Hey.
I was born in Hollywood, Florida, and raised throughout Coastal Virginia. For a too-talkative, “she’s a funny one,” kind of kid, New York became my idea of heaven. The south has its charms, but New York has pizzazz. (And better bagels.) So I live here now. Though it isn’t uncommon that I curse myself for living here. But the bagels are really good. Yum!
I really love making art. All art. Except painting and drawing because I am very bad at that. I write a little bit of everything—as you may tell from my blog. I love movies and theatre. I was raised by a writer and was taught from an early age to never leave the house without a book to read.
I also do comedy. I am on an improv team called Public Meltdown. They are the best people I know. I love them fiercely. Oh! And I teach yoga and fitness. Teaching brings me an aggressive amount of happiness.
If you would like to know EVEN MORE about my life, I have an Instagram.
If you would like to know EVEN MORE about my mental health struggles, I have a Twitter.
Love You,
Jet J.
These are things teachers who I love and respect said about me! Pretty cool.
“Jet is also a gifted writer, improvisational artist, dancer and a very engaging human being. She has an uncanny sense of comic timing that is just a natural gift and a natural and grounded sense of herself.”

“ [Jet] is a vibrant, energetic performer, but also a nuanced and detailed actress. She also has a touch of star quality. The “it” factor. The you-know-it-when-you-see it thing.”
