Jeanette's journey in the entertainment industry began with a degree in Theater from the prestigious Cornish College of the Arts, which served as the catalyst for her swift transition into the vibrant Seattle film scene. She quickly made a name for herself by securing roles in a diverse range of projects, including short films, commercials, voice-overs, and independent movies such as the critically acclaimed "World Enough and Time", the enigmatic "The Stranger", and the horror cult classic "Frayed". This early success was followed by her booking a significant role in the indie film "The Immaculate Conception of Little Dizzle", directed by the acclaimed David Russo.
It was during this period that Jeanette had the opportunity to collaborate with the renowned Lynn Shelton, with whom she developed a lasting creative partnership. Notably, Jeanette played the lead in the popular web series "What the Funny" and appeared in Shelton's films "My Effortless Brilliance" and "Your Sister's Sister". Her impressive body of work continued to grow, with a forthcoming role in the highly anticipated film "Charm City Kings", written by Berry Jenkins and set to premiere at the esteemed Sundance Film Festival.
Sadly, Jeanette's life was cut tragically short due to a diagnosis of cancer in early 2021. Her final on-screen appearance was in the film "My Fiona", a poignant reminder of her enduring talent and the lasting impact she had on the film industry.
