Her products are available at Dorothy Lane Market locations, and her culinary skills have been featured by the Dayton Daily News, CNN.com, FOX 45 in the Morning, and Living Dayton. Turning another passion into a business venture, Jessica and her husband, Gus, have taught Swing and Lindy Hop dancing through a partnership with the Beavercreek Parks and Recreation Department for more than two decades. They hosted Dayton’s first Lindy Hop Exchange in 2005, and later earned the DayTony Award for Best Dance Ensemble in professional theater.
