In her fourth year as a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader, Jessica says “the uniform is famous, not her.” However, she continues to prove that the ladies in those uniforms can make a huge difference.
Originally from Iowa, Jessica earned her finance degree from Indiana State University. From there, she was invited to cheer for the Indiana Pacers. That’s when the most famous cheerleading squad in the world called, and Jessica set sail for DFW. In addition to cheering at Cowboys home games on Sundays, and several cheerleader appearances, Jessica stays busy in her full-time job as an accountant for a home construction company in Dallas.
Jessica says she loves smashing the stereotype that girls don’t like math. Her dad is a gastro intestinal doctor and her mom is a former chemical engineer. Jessica’s love for math runs in the family…to the point where she says she viewed mathematical equations as fun games growing up. While Jessica understands she grew up in an extremely fortunate situation, she wants to be a role model for young ladies from all backgrounds, that anything is possible, as long as they set goals and work hard to achieve them.
