Jess was a fantastic player who was incredibly adaptable.

She started out the game forming a very close friendship with Val. The two ladies brought in Nicole and wanted to form an All-Women's alliance. However, this quickly began to fall apart as Nicole and Terry ended up showmancing. Thus causing Val and Jess to have to scramble to Cody and Oscer (another pair) to stay alive, but the men were wary of them because of their hang-up on girl power.

After Val was voted out after the swap, Jess kicked her game into high gear. She roped Elena into an all girl alliance with Sasha and Charisma and they took out a big threat and charmer in Cody. Then, Elena and Oscer were getting too close so Jess and Sasha decided it would be best to split them up and send Oscer home before he could re-connect with Terry at the merge, leaving Elena feeling vulnerable.

At the merge, Terry made an alliance with the Eos tribe to get rid of Jess, while the Maia tribe plus Jess went after Elena hoping to convince Feraina to flip. However, she didn't and after a rock draw Jess's alliance came out on top. At this point Jess was ready to flip on Terry, but the ex-Maia tribe refused to get rid of Terry because they were afraid she would flip on them if Terry left. This caused Jess to become frustrated and make a deal with Nick and Elena to force a tie at final 8, which led to rocks and sending Nathan home.

Jess continued for the next few rounds to eliminate Terry until she was finally able to convince Charisma and Elena to form an all girl's pact to eliminate Terry as he was a huge threat and too close to their allies - Nick and Taichi. After doing so, Jess built a stronger relationship with Charisma who helped sway Taichi back to their side to blindside Nick.

At the final four, Jess and Elena recognized they needed to work together to get to the end. Charisma, who was a wildcard offered to flip on her ally Taichi after Elena won immunity. However, Jess decided it would be better to blindside Charisma as she was a stronger challenge performer and better player, sending Charisma home in a shocking 2-1-1 vote.

Jess won the final immunity challenge and voted out Taichi because of his strong social game and the fact that she wanted to sit in the end with another strong woman.

In the end, Jess was awarded the win for her independent game play, making crucial flips in the game, and overcoming more adversity than Elena.
