Jessica Gilbert on Clubhouse

Bio

Jessica Gilbert is the publisher/writer of Talent Spotlight Magazine (TSM), creative artist, entrepreneur and certified TEFL teacher.

She has interviewed acclaimed artists such as Il Volo, Martin Page, Pat Hunt, Frank J. Myers, Anderson East, and Susaye Greene (The Supremes), plus Tony award-winning actress Tonya Pinkins, award-winning children’s author Timothy Bellavia, and other established and up-and-comers.

Jessica was interviewed in a book, "Dream Reachers II," by the late author/acclaimed journalist Betty Dravis (Co-author is Chase Von, a poet/celebrity interviewer). She is in this book alongside best-selling author and world-famous founder of the Good Will Peace Treaty, Bryant McGill; actress Katherin Kovin Pacino (Al Pacino’s stepmother); actor/director Tony Tarantino; radio show hostess, Joan Baker and many more. Jessica has been on various radio programs, including "The American Perspective" with journalist Judyth Piazza. She also appeared in the third anti-bully Forbidden Tears production, "To The Top."

Jessica is far from your average woman because she has been exposed to a broad range of experiences so far in life. She has lived in three countries (USA - Houston, TX; Canada - Montreal, QC and Marbella, Spain), and has done extensive travelling throughout much of North America, Europe and the Dominican Republic.

She has taken part in all aspects of the arts throughout her life, however, Jessica has always mainly been drawn to art and creative writing. She attended Concordia University in Montreal studying art and earned a BFA Degree in Studio Art with an emphasis on painting and drawing. Later, she did a graphic design intensive program through the Continuing Education department.

Prior to Jessica’s move back to Spain in August 2009, where she currently resides, she had been living in Canada for fourteen years. Whilst living in Canada, she had various administrative and graphic design work experiences. Late in 2008, the idea for her online "Talent Spotlight Magazine (TSM)" started to germinate - it finally launched in November 2010.

TSM came into existence as a result of her desire to participate in the creative process of talent. Having always been drawn to people - their work and lives - being able to interview them, getting close and personal so to speak - is truly a thrill. It is also very fulfilling for her to offer them a venue to promote their talent.

Besides the magazine, Jessica is involved in other creative endeavours.
