BEGINNING AS A DESIGN INTERN AT DONNA KARAN COLLECTION ON SEVENTH AVENUE, JENNIFER HAS WORKED UNDER THE DIRECTION OF EXPERIENCED AND TALENTED CREATIVE LEADERSHIP, AND ALONGSIDE EQUALLY INSPIRING AND GIFTED DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT TEAMS.

AS A YOUNG GRADUATE OF FIT, IN 2010 SHE MOVED TO AUSTRIA (TO FOLLOW HER HEART). THERE, AFTER A YEAR OF INTENSE GERMAN CLASSES AND MANY BOLD INTRODUCTIONS AT ISPO MUNICH, SHE FOUND WORK AS A DESIGNER AT A FAMILY OWNED COMPANY IN THE AUSTRIAN ALPS: SPORTALM KITZBÜHEL. SHE DESIGNED COMPLETE COLLECTIONS AT SPORTALM, WORKING WITH IN-HOUSE PATTERNMAKERS AND SAMPLE ROOM ON THE DEVELOPMENT END. THIS EXPERIENCE WAS INCREDIBLY REWARDING AND SHAPED HER IN COUNTLESS WAYS.

THREE AND A HALF YEARS LATER, RETURNING TO NEW YORK AFTER SPORTALM, JENNIFER WORKED AS WOVENS AND OUTERWEAR DESIGNER AT NAUTICA (UNDER VF CORP). THIS INCLUDED DENIM AS WELL AS KNIT ACTIVE CATEGORIES. SHE WAS A LEAD MEMBER OF THE WOMEN’S DESIGN TEAM AS NAUTICA LAUNCHED A FULL PRICE RETAIL LINE WHICH WAS SOLD IN THE STATES AND INTERNATIONALLY.

FOLLOWING NAUTICA, JENNIFER HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK AT DKNY WHERE SHE HEADED UP THE CUT AND SEW KNITS DIVISION UNDER THE LEADERSHIP OF THE VP OF DESIGN.
