Meet Jessica Mora: From Pharmacist to Bigfoot Enthusiast

Jul 16

Jessica Mora's journey from the quiet streets of Richmond, Virginia, to the enigmatic world of Bigfoot research is nothing short of fascinating. Born and raised in Richmond, Jessica's early life was marked by a growing curiosity about the legendary creature known as Bigfoot. This fascination stayed with her, even as she pursued a rigorous academic path.

Jessica graduated with a Doctorate of Pharmacy from the Medical College of Virginia, a testament to her dedication and intellectual prowess. Over the next 15 years, she specialized in medication compounding, establishing herself as a respected pharmacist. But her passion for Bigfoot never waned.

A Leap into the Unknown

In 2018, Dr. Mora decided to blend her academic rigor with her passion for Bigfoot. She immersed herself in the subject, consuming podcasts, documentaries, films, and taking meticulous notes from various encounters. This led to the creation of her "Bigfoot Notes," an ongoing project that continues to grow as she delves deeper into the world of cryptozoology.

The Birth of Broken Branch Designs

Two years later, in 2020, Jessica took her passion a step further by co-founding Broken Branch Designs with her brother. This venture opened numerous doors, allowing Jessica to help organize Bigfoot events, participate in Bigfoot expeditions, and even co-create a cryptid event.

EncounterQuest: A Gathering of Enthusiasts

Jessica's entrepreneurial spirit and passion for Bigfoot culminated in the creation of EncounterQuest, an annual event held in North Carolina. This event, organized with a fellow vendor friend, has become a significant gathering for cryptid enthusiasts, offering a space for like-minded individuals to share their experiences and knowledge.
