Jerrica examines the spectrum of Blackness with focus on lineage, ritual, neurodiversity, and faith.

Her work is a defense for living. She creates to provide evidence that joy is possible. She desires for her communities to feel seen, encouraged, and to know they are not alone.

She believes in whimsy and she believes in love.

Her work has been developed with the Classical Theatre of Harlem, Primary Stages, Workshop Theater, Ensemble Theater, and Cincinnati Black Theatre Artist Collective. As an author, she has been in Residence with Liberation Theatre Company in Harlem, Soho House, and the National Black Theatre Keep Soul Alive: Micro-development. As a director, she has worked on productions with New York Theater Workshop (Saturday Church - dir Whitney White), Arena Stage (Crazy Sexy Cool - The TLC Musical - dir Kwame Kwei-Armah), Baltimore Center Stage (Akeelah and the Bee), Urbanite Theatre (From 145th to 98th Street), The Public Theater (JORDANS - dir Whitney White), NBT (Black Mother Lost Daughter dir - Stevie Walker-Webb). She is currently a 2025-2026 Directing Fellow at NYU Tisch Department of Design for Stage and Film.
