A solid vision and lots of passion were instrumental in Jil Ross resigning from her job with a clear intention of changing the landscape of what diverse content writers look like. Jil desires to expand viewership by appealing to often ignored audiences. "I'd been on my job for over 25 years and was having a good workday when almost organically, something came over me and said, "Today is the day." With that, I submitted my two-week notice." Ross began coursework at the Film School of Comedy at the Second City – Chicago in January 2017. "I'd already written a series of children's books and had been writing for the Black Ensemble Theater for ten years. I wanted to challenge myself and broaden my skills." "I didn't know I had the wherewithal to complete the rigorous film program," Ross explained. Instead of being intimidated by all she didn't know, she welcomed the challenge of learning something new and committed herself to being a great storyteller and screenwriter. Jil was featured on the WLS ABC News segment "Chicago Proud" and in the entertainment magazine, The REEL Chicago."
