JESSICA CRUZ

I've dreamed of being in actress in movies since I was a little girl. After spending a lot of time dancing along to Hindi songs and re-enacting the entire movie of "Wizard of Oz," I auditioned for my first play in middle school and landed my first ever acting role as the Cruise Director in the play, "Anchors Aweigh".

After being heavily involved in theater throughout school, I now work as an Actress, Producer, Editor, Casting Assistant, and Production Assistant. Adding to my job title, I am now host of my new talk show, Coffee Break Convos with Jessica. 

During the Pandemic, I remotely produced a short film titled "Orchid Daydreams", in which I played a leading role. I garnered multiple semi-finalist, finalist, and honorable mention positions in various film festivals for my performance as Naomi. I also won Best Actress in a Drama at the Best Actor Awards New York, and Best Actor of the Year at the Mumbai International Film Awards.

In addition, my self-tape performance of Rue's monologue from HBO's "Euphoria" won Best Monologue at the Best Actor Awards New York.

My most notable credits include: "Burn It All", "Orchid Daydreams", and "Three Women and a Possible Fire Next Door".
