| Born August 24, 1974, in Illinois U.S.A., Jennifer knew early on that she wanted to act. Encouraged by an English teacher, along with a drama teacher, she began performing in summer theater and festivals at 13. She performed roles in Shakespeare's "The Tempest" and "Othello" before moving on to more contemporary dramatic and musical theater. Jennifer first appeared in front of the camera playing twins in an industrial film for bubblegum.

She can be heard on Saturday Night Live regular Adam Sandler's comedy album. Jennifer has also guest voiced on "The Critic" and dubbed lines in the English version of the French Miramax film "Baby Blood". Returning to work in front of the camera, she landed the part of Roanne on the short-lived ABC TV sitcom "Phenom" and appeared in the short independent film trailer "The Hairy Bird".
