Actor - Jennifer is a tri-coastal actress with credits and training in Great Britain, New York and Los Angeles. In 2007 she chased her dreams to New York City to study theatre, live, act and learn. It went well. In 2012, in a fit of what must have been either madness or great clarity, she relocated to Seattle WA, where her dreams seem to be chasing her. She aspires to be successful enough to never have to write a bio for herself ever again. Oh, and to make great theatre, film, art, earn a living, travel the world, adopt a cat, help others, and stay healthy. It's a start.
