read more about Jackie's career below...
Jackie is a professional actor, director, filmmaker and theatre educator based between Pittsburgh, PA and New York City. She has worked across the country.
An award-winning artist, Jackie shares her time between projects for stage and screen - on a mission to tell stories that matter, and elevate voices that need to be heard.
A director in her own right - with her latest projects including short film 'The Couriers' receiving 9 festival award nominations from the 48 Hour Film Project (including Best Picture, as well as Best Woman-Led Project and an individual nomination for Best Director), and overseeing the out-of-town tryout for the first stateside performances of The Viral Group Australia's 'BROADWAY ON TOUR' (which has seen wild popularity in the UK) after which the show was successfully picked up to begin its U.S. run in cities across the country - Jackie is a true jack-of-all-trades, with skill for helming both artistic and commercial productions.
As an actor, Jackie is a force to be reckoned with, whether leading sci-fi thrillers or ambitious reimaginings of American classics, or working in voiceover or with brands for digital release marketing. A critically-acclaimed regional stage actor with both classical and contemporary professional credits from Shakespeare to Stephen Adly Guirgis, Jackie is also a BroadwayWorld Award Winner and a 48 Hour Film Project Best Leading Actor nominee.
She's repped commercially by The Talent Group LLC, and is notably too a grateful recipient of the President's Volunteer Service Award, presented by the White House in acknowledgement of her dedication to and service of her community through the arts.
