Jessenia Echevarria
as Nina Rosario
Jessenia Echevarria (Nina) is a senior at BRHS. This is her 5th show with the Buena Drama Club where she will finally perform as Nina! She is very excited to perform in this great production alongside her brother, Weylin, after her previous roles of Cinderella’s mother in Into the Woods Jr, Bird Girl in Seussical, Mother Superior in Sister Act, and a Dynamite in Hairspray. Outside of the drama club, Jessie also participates in the school choir, Natural Helpers, and is the drum major of the school marching band. Since Jessie is a senior, she plans to attend a university and enroll in nursing school after she leaves “el barrio”. While in college, Jessie hopes to participate in college level theatre productions as well. Maybe she’ll get to perform without her little brother for once! ;) She would like to thank her family, friends, and most importantly fellow cast and crew for giving her the support to appear on the set of In the Heights! Enjoy the show!
