Originally from Atlanta, Georgia, Jaquess began competing at the age of 5 and by the time she was 8 had set her first USA National record in slalom. This was the first of 39 USA National records (to date) to be set by her in all three events, slalom, tricks, and jumping. At the age of 16, Jaquess captured the World Trick title, and at the following World Championships, she was crowned World Overall Champion, while setting the World Championship tournament record.
