About Me
Hi! Thanks for checking out my page! My name is Jessica Fisher, and here is a little snippet about me and my life: I was born and raised in Buffalo, NY. My family's tradition of 'family Friday movie nights' heavily impacted my love for film and my passion to write. But doing what you love can be very intimidating and scary to navigate through. More than halfway into my undergraduate studies, I realized I needed to follow my heart and chase my dreams ('it's never too late'—that's what I told myself even though my advisors told me otherwise). So, logically, I added on another major and continued to study. I was able to graduate on time with a Bachelor's in both Biology and Film Production (two very different worlds). Now, almost a year post-graduation, I am currently creating a short film at Aardman Animations! I am incredibly thankful for all the opportunities I have been given and will continue to follow my passion and venture into the film and animation industry!
