I am an actor, environmentalist, and producer. I grew up in Boulder, CO, before coming to Los Angeles to pursue a career in acting. I love spending time with my friends and family, taking my dog Tina on walks, staying healthy and active, and making a positive impact on our world.
My Production Company - Iron Ocean Films:
I’ve partnered with Los Angeles movie producer Michelle Purple, to create our new production company, Iron Ocean Films. Our first short film, “Hole in the Paper Sky”, was recently viewed at The Beverly Hills Short Festival and won two awards, Best Drama, and Best Director (Bill Purple). Also, make sure you check out the score to "Hole in the Paper Sky" on iTunes and let us know what you think!
My Passion Project - MTDN:
I co-founded Make the Difference Network with my father and a group of caring social entrepreneurs. MTDN is a cause-oriented social network which provides technology and tools to nonprofit organizations to raise awareness and funds for their causes.
Here are links to the nonprofits I sponsor on MTDN:
The Wild Animal Sanctuary is the oldest and largest nonprofit refuge for captive large carnivores in North America, with over 150 lions, tigers, bears and other animals in residence.
Gridiron Heroes, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit foundation, provides immediate and long-term resources and support to individuals sustaining a catastrophic spinal cord injury through activities associated with high school football.
Featured Nonprofit:
GG’s mission it to end elder loneliness by creating compassionate teen leaders. We organize teen volunteers into chapters that visit nursing homes at least once a month providing the women living there complimentary facials and makeovers.

This is a short video of me and a few friends working on an art project for a nonprofit organization called A Window Between Worlds. A Window Between Worlds "is a nonprofit organization dedicated to using art to help end domestic violence. Through creative expression, battered women and children gain a sense of renewal and power. Their images of hope, survival and strength educate the public and become "a window between worlds" for survivors taking steps to change their lives." We made this art project to help raise funds at their upcoming auction. Enjoy! Jess.
