Jessica Graves

Personal story

Originally from Brooklyn, New York, I grew up surrounded by a mix of creativity and structure. My passion for music led me to earn two degrees in vocal performance and pursue a career in opera and performance. The discipline, communication, and presence I learned on stage naturally transitioned to my work as an executive assistant. Now based in Boston, I enjoy fostering meaningful connections and bringing organisation to dynamic environments. Outside of work, I remain passionate about music and appreciate the balance it brings to my personal and professional life.
