Jesse Draper is a multifaceted talent who has made a name for herself in the entertainment industry. Her career began as an actress on the popular Nickelodeon series "The Naked Brother's Band", a family-friendly show created and produced by her aunt Polly Draper, in which she starred alongside her singer-songwriter/musician cousins Nat and Alex Wolff. She quickly gained recognition as Jesse, the hot nanny.
Draper's career progressed with small movie roles in "The Mighty Macs" starring Carla Gugino and "Ticket Out" starring Ray Liotta. As she became established in the Hollywood scene, she decided to create her own show, utilizing the internet as a platform.
Growing up in Silicon Valley during the dot com boom, with a father, Tim Draper, who is a well-known venture capitalist, Jesse Draper was exposed to the world of business from a young age. She created and produced a talk show celebrating the "movers and shakers" of the business world.
The show, "The Valley Girl Show", was labelled "must-see startup TV" by USA Today and took off on Valleygirl.tv. Jesse has since interviewed notable guests such as Ted Turner, MC Hammer, Eric Schmidt, and Elon Musk, making her a coveted interviewee for CEOs.
Draper claims to be the "Ellen DeGeneres of business", and Valley Girl, Inc., her multi-platform media company, runs a series of blogs, including "The Valley Girl Show", and features Draper as a discoverer, helping pave the way in the new world of social media. The company recently acquired the LA technology culture blog Lalawag.
In addition to her work with Valley Girl, Inc., Draper is also a blogger for Virgin.com, Business Insider, Pop17, and Valley Girl, Inc.'s blog network.
