In her most notable role, she portrayed Amy Ames Britton Kincaid on The Secret Storm for most of its 20-year run.

With a painter/illustrator grandfather and artist/writer parents to inspire her, Jada had begun drawing and writing from the moment she could hold a pencil.

Published children's books she has illustrated include: Bringing the Farmhouse Home (by Gloria Whelan, Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers, 1992); Miss Tizzy (by Libba Moore Gray, Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers, 1993); The Statue of Liberty (by Lucille Recht Penner, Random House, 1995); and Raising the Roof (by Ronald Kidd, Habitat for Humanity International, 1995).

To Jada Rowland,
When I was in high school in the late sixties, I absolutely adored you playing the Amy character in Secret Storm. I said then that if I ever had a little girl, I would name her after you and call her Amy and hope that she would have beautiful brown eyes and dark hair as yours. And, I DID just that. You do have a namesake! My Amy was born in Tennessee in February, 1978. She has beautiful brown eyes and dark brown/black hair and a sweet personality and smile. She is now 41. She has a degree in dietetics, but is struggling now due to a failed marriage. Wish she could meet you so you could inspire her a bit!
Thanks for reading this!
