Jess Bala: Driven by Competition, On and Off the Road

Jess Bala readily admits to a competitive streak. It’s not the aggressive, win-at-all-costs type, but a natural drive to excel.

“Even now, when I play games with the kids, everyone laughs at me, but I’ll play Mario Kart or something like that and, there I am, beating an eight-year-old and two five-year-olds. Because I can.”

This competitive nature likely serves her well in her professional endeavors, too.
