Meet Jess

Q & A

WITH Jess:

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN in the beauty industry?

Fun Fact: I actually used to be a hairstylist waaayyy back in the day alongside Mark, Glory, Laura Beth, Jordan & Merrill! I’ve since “retired” from doing hair—but have been in the beauty industry in many capacities on and off since 2006.

WHAT DO YOU LOVE MOST ABOUT LIVING IN NASHVILLE?

I was born & raised here so I feel I’ve seen Nashville through so many phases of its growth; as it has me. Having nature so easily accessible is a major perk. I am also very grateful to the supportive & ultra creative community that’s cultivated around me all these years.

YOU’RE STRANDED ON A DESERTED ISLAND AND ONLY HAVE ONE BOOK WITH YOU. WHICH ONE IS IT?

Oh boy! This is a hard one. Either New and Selected Poems Volume Two by Mary Oliver OR anything by Elisabeth Kübler-Ross.

IF YOU COULD PICK ONE PLANT TO BEST REPRESENT YOU, WHICH ONE WOULD IT BE?

Morning Glory! They’re vibrant & open up during the day then close back up at night.

I looove the sunshine & am an early riser but this granny loves getting in bed as sooooon as the sun goes down :)

Band or Artist on repeat?

Currently (& always) The Marias, Mac Miller, Nina Simone & Jimmy Eat World.
