Jordana began acting by joining a three-year Theatre program, as IMDB states. During that time, she started her own company and launched her first professional play. While she loves theatre, she decided to focus on Film and TV. She still creates content and supports local artists and companies.
In an interview with Sci-Fi Bulletin, Jordana said acting was a mix of natural interest and a gradual discovery. As an only child, she often used her imagination to entertain herself. Later, while studying political science, she took speech classes and realized her love for acting.
She shared, “I was studying political science, I was going to become an international lawyer advocate and much to my mum’s dismay at first, I caught the acting bug, I liked the classes I took on the side. So, I took a detour and applied and auditioned for this theatre school – so I’m a classically trained theatre actor.”
“I got in and I was like ‘OK, now’s the time to do it. If you’re not going to do it, you’ll end up regretting it, just do it. And if anything, if you fail – great. You can become a lawyer at any time in your life, thirties, forties it doesn’t really matter.’ But for some reason, especially female actresses have a bit of shorter shelf life. I don’t like to say that, really I don’t believe it, I think it’s complete BS but whatever. It is what it is,” the actress also noted.

During the Sci-Fi Bulletin interview, the actress discussed how he joined ‘The Boys,’ explaining, “It was the straight self-tape request. I was working on something else and my agent asked me to tape this thing. I didn’t know much about it. I just put myself on tape and didn’t really think about it much.”
She added, “I got a call and my agent said ‘Look, you have to travel in a couple days because you actually booked that thing.’ So it’s really only when I got to Toronto that I started prepping for this role.”
