ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR
Jennifer was born and raised in Boulder, Colorado. As is often the case, Jennifer did not begin her adult life as an artist. Her early roots began in chemistry and food science where she developed a love of creating art with food. Jennifer feels that her creative spark was truly ignited when she completed the graduate jeweler program at the Revere Academy of Jewelry Arts and apprenticed with a San Francisco area jewelry designer.
