Jessica recently won NOW Magazine's Face of NOW and we talked about it in this Annex shoot.

Jessica: I'm really excited about being the face of NOW. As an actor, I never thought that I would have the opportunity to be on a cover of a magazine. I'm not super tall or skinny, but I still felt like I should go for it. Their editorial team is going to do a photo-shoot with me and I'm going to be in a NOW commercial. It's pretty crazy.

TorontoVerve: What's the best advice that you've received?

Jessica: My mother told me that "life is beautiful." In a time when I felt that important people were abandoning me, just thinking about that one quote allowed me to envision the brighter things that life could offer.
