Levieva immigrated to the United States at age 11 with her mother and twin brother, Michael, and settled in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn.[2] Though she was accepted into Laguardia High School to study dance, she instead attended public high school in Secaucus, New Jersey.[4] In addition to working full-time as a fashion buyer, Levieva graduated a year early from New York University with a double major in economics and psychology and minors in philosophy, sociology, and Russian history.[5]

Jenny is a single mother from Cherry Hill, New Jersey, who, during a European vacation with her daughter, finds her life turned upside down when the CIA forces her to confront her long-buried past as a Russian spy, the product of a secret KGB experiment that endowed her with "special abilities".

In 2024, she appeared in the Star Wars series The Acolyte as Mother Koril.[6] In 2025, she starred in the Marvel Cinematic Universe series Daredevil: Born Again as Heather Glenn, the love interest of Matt Murdock/Daredevil.[7]
