Jess Moran

Quiet everywhere but on stage, Jess Moran obtained a BFA in theater from Shenandoah Conservatory in 2009. In 2016, she received an MEd in education, which was performing on a daily basis! It's led to her wanting to make nonfiction texts as accessible as possible for every listener in her performance. Spending over three years living in Northern Ireland was great craic, and only bolstered Jess's love for accents and dialects.

Jess loves stories about strong women, sweeping history or mythology, and those featuring awkward young people with gumption. She brings a grounded yet playful, connected presence to every piece. When Jess is not recording, you will find her in mud-caked boots, covered in flour, chasing her children, or dancing (poorly, but happily).
