When Jackie is not on tour or performing for Olivia Cruises, she is busy around Manhattan and Los Angeles doing spots on Maxim's Sirius radio & VH1 shows. This trained actor & Upright Citizen’s Brigade improviser is unstoppable.

 You are sure to see Jackie on your television in her One Night Stand Up special for LOGO.

Jackie’s humor is fresh, disarming, and original; she will shock you and make you think.

There is nothing out of bounds when it comes to Jackie's hilarious stand up. She's been known to give her audiences an unforgettable abs workout that will leave you sore for days, hence the nickname, Jackie the Ripper!
