Jessica was highly over educated in the UK and Canada, but ultimately found herself trained to do one of two things: be a clown or start her own religion. Luckily for comedy and original sin, in the early 1990s she discovered Bollywood. She wasted most of her 20s on the dusty film sets of North Mumbai. She has subsequently written a book about a bit of her time there with Indian megastar Amitabh Bachchan, Looking For the Big B: Bollywood, Bachchan and Me. She has done many, many things from turning Selfridges into Bollywood to running a business that worked with Indian celebrity creating licensable content, and adding in all the Hind swear words into Slumdog Millionaire. She writes on travel, fashion, design and food for India Today. She is also the Indian Engagement Strategist for Here Now which takes her to India a lot.
