About

Bio

Jess DeFranco

I grew up in the Bay Area and am a San Francisco-based dancer. After receiving my Bachelor of Arts in Dance and Asian American Studies from San Francisco State University, I began working as a freelance performing artist and dance educator.

My training background consists of a focus in classical ballet and contemporary dance, however I am open to collaborations involving styles of movement and performance that are new to me. I pride myself on being a quick learner, open to finding new pathways in the body, and learning new movement vocabularies from collaborators.

I'm always open to new opportunities, collaborations, and creative challenges.
