Epilepsy, a traumatic brain injury—and pure love. Jessica is truly the heart of ScentsAbility Candles and The IDDeal Foundation. Sweet, kind, and everyone’s friend, she brings warmth and joy and lots of hugs wherever she goes. She has been with her longtime boyfriend, Michael, for 14 years and still lights up every time she sees him—a beautiful reflection of the love she carries within her.

Despite early medical predictions that she would never walk or talk, Jessica continues to defy expectations with incredible determination. She participates in more than 20 virtual classes each week and remains committed to both physical and neurodevelopmental therapy. At ScentsAbility Candles, Jessica shines as our beloved Greeter and Wick Nurse—always ready with a smile, a hug, and a reminder of what truly matters.

Jessica is living proof that love, perseverance, and positivity can overcome even the greatest challenges.
