She / Her
Born in Dundee, Scotland, Jessica Mill brings the interesting mix of Celtic grounding and Kiwi adaptability to her work as an actor. With dual residency in both Scotland and New Zealand, she has spent her life moving fluidly between the two cultures.
Jessica's natural Scottish accent can shift effortlessly into a neutral tone, giving her versatility across a wide range of acting roles. She began her acting training in Scotland, building a strong foundation in character development and voice, and continues to hone her craft in New Zealand through ongoing training and private coaching.
Off-screen, Jessica keeps her creativity alive through music and art. A self-taught singer, she regularly jams with her sister on guitar, and finds balance in painting ceramics—a hands-on outlet that mirrors the detail and care she brings to every performance. She's also committed to her physical fitness, maintaining a strong, screen-ready presence.
With international roots, a passion for storytelling, and a playful, grounded energy, Jessica is an actor directors find easy to work with and exciting to cast.
