Jackie has grown up surrounded by singing siblings and a guitar-playing dad. In high school, Jackie enrolled in Berklee College of Music's summer program where she studied a variety of different genres, but fell in love with rock. Berklee offered her a four-year scholarship to the school and Jackie knew she wanted to be a professional musician. At school she became the lead singer of an alternative rock band called Self Portraits. They write, release and perform original music around New England.
