Born and raised in Australia, and finishing school at the age of 13. Shortly after, Jessica Gomes managed to land a stint on an Australian series entitled Bush Patrol, which undoubtedly provided the would-be entertainer with her first taste of fame.
At 17, Jessica Gomes’ blossoming good looks led her to a local modeling contest, and it wasn’t long before local agents and photographers were crawling over one another to shoot the exotic beauty. She quickly climbed up the ranks of the local modeling scene, appearing in the pages of high-profile magazines like Vogue Australia, Glamour, and Teen Vogue. Jessica Gomes’ profile received a considerable boost after she appeared in Victoria’s Secret’s catalog, and there was little doubt that a move to New York City was the next logical step for the up-and-coming model.
