Experience
Before joining the PDS, Jessica worked as a Prison Officer at HMP Feltham for 18 months. This experience gave her invaluable first-hand knowledge of the realities of the criminal justice system.
Prior to her time in the Prison Service, she was employed as a paralegal in a boutique criminal and civil law firm, where she had the responsibility of preparing and running cases from outset to completion.
She spent most of her childhood in Asia (Taiwan, Shanghai and Singapore). Outside of work, she enjoys running and regularly runs half marathons and full marathons. She also draws portraits in her spare time.
