Background and early life of Jessica Garza

Jessica was born and spent her early childhood in Mexico with her parents and younger brother. Her birth details show she was born on September 22, 1984, in Mexico City, Mexico. As she has stated in several interviews in the past, she always had a passion for performing/acting right from a very tender age. The actress recalls teaming up with her brother and going all the way to stage plays and theatrical performances for her family at a very young age, complete with a makeshift stage, lighting, props, and even improvised music, just to give her family that theatrical experience at home.

When Jessica Garza was in fourth grade, she met a fellow 4th grader who was going to acting classes, as well as auditions, and this actually got her thinking.

By the time she went to high school, her passion to become an actor had consumed her so much that she made a deal with her father that if she finishes school a year early, he would consider letting her go to Los Angeles for auditions and acting classes. Her father couldn’t resist her enthusiasm and agreed to the deal despite wanting her to proceed to college.

She did finish high school early and her father kept his word and allowed her mother to move to Los Angeles with Jessica and her brother.
