Biography
''Jessie was born and raised in Fort Hood, a rural town in Texas. Her father is in the Marine Corps, and she often describes him as being strict but soft. At age eighteen, Jessie got the sudden desire to follow her dreams, and moved to New York City as she believed that the place was where dreams came true. She'd told her father that she "had a great job", but actually had no idea where she was going to work. While in a taxi, Jessie realized that her wallet was missing and she had no money. This lead to her being thrown out of the cab, right outside an apartment building. Incidentally, she became the nanny of a high profile couple's four kids; Emma, Luke, Ravi, and Zuri Ross.''

Physical appearance
''Jessie has fair skin, red hair with bangs, and green eyes. She has a round, plump face and full lips. She usually curls her medium-length hair, but can be seen with straight hair in some episodes. Her outfits are always colorful, and she wears both dresses and blouses, jeans, tights etc. Jessie's most worn type of footwear appears to be boots and sandals, and she is very rarely seen wearing sneakers.''

She has a fear of Port-a-Potties, but she gets over it in A Doll's Outhouse. Also, in the Star Wars' episode it is revealed she dislikes rats. Jessie is an idealistic, optimistic, well-rounded starry eyed teen ''who does her best to aim high. She was a straight A-student ''and Class of 2011 high school graduate in school. Not only that, but she has a squeaky clean record. She knows how to fly a helicopter and loves music. In the meantime, she moved to New York City to live her dream.

Despite being friendly, she can be aggressive, and threatening, when others push her to her limits, despite this she nearly always does the right thing.

Big Dreams & Big Apples
In the first half of the crossover special, Jessie and Emma bump into Team Austin, and using Jessie's helicopter flying skills, they help Austin be ready to perform Can You Feel It just in time.

Nanny In Miami
In the second half of the crossover special, Jessie has a much bigger role, seeing as this half is the Jessie half. After finding Zuri and safely getting her back from the ball, they head back to the Ross Penthouse. Emma begs Jessie to let Team Austin stay in the penthouse, and Jessie grudgingly agrees. While they're there, Jessie begs Austin and Ally to look at her songs, and while doing so, accidentally takes Zuri's poem as one of her songs. After looking at all the songs, the singer and songwriter of Team Austin deem Zuri's poem the only good song, and Team Austin plus Jessie and the Ross kids all fly to Miami so Jessie can perform Face 2 Face with Austin.
