Star of the international award-winning indie comedy Fishnet, Jillian
began her performing career quite young as a singer. It was in Europe
where she began studying acting, taking classes at La Scuola D'Imbarco
outside of Florence, Italy while continuing to study music at
L'Accademia Musicale di Firenze. Jillian returned from her year abroad
accepted into the prestigious South Coast Repertory Professional
Intensive where she was cited by program director
Karen Hensel as "an excellent, intelligent,
intuitive actress, who was unofficially chosen by Producing Director
David Emmes as 'best PI student.'" Performing throughout her senior
year, she graduated from Sarah Lawrence College with a concentration in
Comparative Literature and Performing Arts.
Jillian moved out to Los Angeles to pursue acting full-time. Within two
months she was cast in her first film and play and has since booked
over twenty films, including the Lionsgate feature
Virus X (2010), as well as the Syfy
Channel original movie
Mega Piranha (2010). On
stage, Jillian has also performed in five plays/musicals throughout Los
Angeles.
