Aside from being an active performer and collaborator primarily in both Boston and New York City, Jessica is a very
passionate teacher and educator. Her teaching philosophy involves a holistic approach, giving her students the
healthiest and most efficient way of using their voice for complete freedom of expression. Jessica takes pride in
constantly being an advocate for her students and finds it of the utmost importance to always show compassion in an
art form so vulnerable and personal.
So far her students have gone on to win competitions, perform lead roles, and receive cultural honors for their
performances: (i.e. 1st place in the 2022 Student Hall Competition, Captain Walker in The Who’s Tommy the Musical,
Miss Hannigan in Annie theMusical, multiple honors of singing The United States National Anthem, and more…).
Jessica also teaches for New England Conservatory's Preparatory School, the Arlington After School Private Lessons
Program and The Boston Synagogue, and maintains a private studio (The Bloch Voice Studio) as a part of her
collaborative company: Bloch Performing Arts Inc.
Jessica received her Bachelor of Arts in Theater and Music with an Italian minor from The Florida State University
(2015), her Master Performance Certificate (2017) and Master of Music in Vocal Performance from The University of
