Jen’s formal training in metalsmithing began at the Maine College of Art in Portland, Maine. She also studied metalsmithing at Montana State University in Bozeman, Montana.
This education was followed by a four year apprenticeship with a nationally recognized Jewelry artist. "The experience of working with a successful artist gave me the building blocks for designing and making my own work."
Jen works from her studio/Boutique in a busy culturally diverse neighborhood of Portland. Her work features richly textured sterling siver and 18kt gold with rough cut semi-precious stones and freshwater pearls.
Her work can be found in Galleries and at Art Shows across the country.
