While attending UC Santa Barbara, Jessica’s faith grew more genuine through the encouragement and friendship of the women in her dorm Bible study. She has previously worked in investor relations at a private equity real estate firm, a role she thoroughly enjoyed. However, the arrival of her children shifted her priorities, sparking a deep interest in sharing discipleship resources with other parents. This passion led her to the role of Children’s Coordinator at Reality SF, where she feels privileged to support and nurture the spiritual growth of young families.
Jessica’s connection to the Reality family of churches runs deep, having attended both Reality Carpinteria and Reality LA before moving to San Francisco. Although she initially found it challenging to adapt to SF’s cold summers, she and her family have grown to love the city and their community. They are committed to remaining in SF as long as the Lord provides for them here.
Outside of work, Jessica cherishes time with her two young children. When she manages to find spare time on her own, she enjoys exercising, reading, and generally enjoying her solo time – even if it means just running errands alone!
