Defending Jacob-Paula Gianetto

Recurring Co-Star on Apple TV+ with recent film work in Barron’s Cove, she combines New England toughness with standout improv chops. Having trained at ImprovBoston, iO Theater, and The Groundlings, she thrives in smart comedy and layered character roles. Equal parts warmth and bite, she’s the woman who can anchor the scene - or steal it.
