Born in an A&W restaurant, Jessi grew up in Vancouver, B.C. and honed her comedic skills as the only girl in an all-male comedy troupe alongside Seth Rogen. She went on to study theatre in London, England and graduated at the top of her class from the prestigious University of Toronto Drama Program. Soon after, she was discovered in a nationwide search to become the new face of MTV in Canada and host of The Hills After Show. Jessi quickly became a fan favorite, and The Hills After Show became an international smash hit, syndicated in 10 countries, generating record breaking ratings in the US and Canada, and securing her two Gemini Awards.
