We sat down with Jessica to figure out how her mind tick.

Where did you grow up?
Born and raised in Taiwan
I came to the Philippines in 2002 and I’m based here ever since.

Why did you choose the Philippines to start and continue your modeling career?
It wasn’t my choice, it was my parents’. But I fell in love with this place and it just so happened that I became a model here and I tried modeling in HK for three months, and also went to Dubai, Malaysia, Shanghai for shoots.

What/ Who inspires you to do the best in your craft?

People who love, who see me as their role model, who get inspired by me. That INSPIRES me to do better every day.

How do you cope up with the tight modeling competition in our industry?

Taking care of yourself is very important, I don’t like to drink and I don’t smoke..and I don’t like to go out. And in modeling, “yourself” is an asset. So this is very important. And I think if you be yourself you’ll stand out. Models who show their personality usually last longer 🙂

What are your hobbies?
I love to draw, I love to sing, art and music is my stress reliever like I draw at night after my long day of modeling and I will bring my ukulele in the car and jam when it’s traffic 🙂

And I love to go to art museums!

Where has your passion for music, fashion, and style taken you?

I never thought it will take me anywhere, just doing what I love, but so far I and my brother have written and composed a song for an indie film that I’m in (It’s coming on 2016) and I got several jobs and features and sponsors ‘cos of my personal style and fashion sense.

What impression do you hope to leave through your personal look?

As long as it’s nothing negative or sexual hahaha. You know, I’m going for this hippie and boho vibe! A free spirit and this is not just a look! It’s inside and out! Overall life peg!

What would you never compromise on?

I don’t know. I guess, everything is negotiable as long as it’s reasonable haha

Where will you be after 10 years?

Ideally, have a hippie house in the mountain, by the river or a lake, and travel around the world.

What was your most memorable modeling project?
Shooting a campaign in Dubai.  It’s one of my dream countries to visit, and I got to go cause of modeling.

For how long have you been single?
Hahahaha. what’s this? Since January.

How do you maintain that relationship with your John?

Do you mean how to maintain a friendship with my ex? Being understanding is the key. We stay friends cause we are true to each other, in the end, we always choose to love, never hate. We know we don’t work as a couple for now, but we never stop loving each other as humans and as friends. Love is good. Love is always the way.

Haha, no pressure! Don’t expect anything from me but I promise to always bring you something different and colorful in me cause I don’t like to stay the same. Always grow and learn every day!

Any tip and message to your followers?

Thanks to everyone who shows me love and makes me feel special. I love to wake up and sleep with all the good vibes from my followers! I’m so blessed and grateful for that 🙂
