Biography

Living with ulcerative colitis and a rare liver disease, primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), since her early 20s, Jessica has walked a path marked by health challenges and surgeries, including a life-changing liver transplant in 2022 with her husband as her donor. These experiences fuel her drive to advocate for patients like her and contribute to advancements in PSC research and awareness. Outside of advocacy, Jessica embraces life fully-whether she's in the garden, out walking with her two dogs, or planning her next travel adventure. She cherishes time with friends, family, and, of course, her supportive husband and "fur babies." Embracing every moment, Jessica brings a unique perspective shaped by resilience, love, and an enduring passion for making every moment count.
