About Jesse

Hailing from Dallas, Texas, Jesse is a varieté circus performer with a remarkable journey that harmonizes innovation with cherished traditions. Her specialization in the mesmerizing art of hoop rolling, a captivating form of juggling, delivers an experience that marries the past with the present, making it truly unforgettable.

Starting her journey at the age of ten, Jesse's initial love for the stage was honed at the Lone Star Circus, where she performed in traditional circus shows. It was here that she discovered hula hoops and the art of commanding an audience. These early experiences laid a strong foundation, instilling in her a deep appreciation for the time-tested techniques that have graced the circus ring for generations. 

In 2016, her desire for creativity and innovation led her to cross the Atlantic to London, where she pursued a Bachelor's in Circus Arts at the prestigious National Centre for Circus Arts. Under the guidance of masters like Inaki Sastre, Ian Merchant, and the legendary Ukrainian juggling coach, Yuriy Pozdnyakov, she delved into a world of endless possibilities.

Jesse's time at circus school was a whirlwind of creativity and innovation, with her focus squarely on reinventing the vintage art of hoop rolling. This historic juggling technique, created by William Everhart in the late 1800s and later sensationalized by Bob Bramson, involves hoops rolling in intricate patterns on the ground. Notably, Jesse holds the unofficial world record for most hoops rolled with an astonishing 11 hoops in motion.

The circus world has been her stage, with performances captivating audiences at venues such as Six Flags Great Adventure, the European Juggling Convention, and Circo Metropolis. She has graced the spotlight at the iconic Krystallpalast Varieté Theatre in Germany as part of their International Varieté Festival Newcomershow. 

Jesse's magnetic personality radiates through every performance. Her mission is to offer a fresh and engaging experience to audiences who are well-acquainted with the traditional, blending innovation with the time-tested, offering a truly unique and unforgettable experience.
