- Actress
Jennifer was born in Vancouver BC, Canada where she started recreational gymnastics at the early age of 5. Her coach recognized her talent for the sport and spoke with her parents about enrolling her in a national level gymnastics facility where she could get the coaching she needed to excel. The family took this to heart and moved closer to Flicka Gymnastics Club where Jennifer thrived. She began training intensively, leaving elementary school at noon daily which allowed her to train her to become a national level gymnast by age 10, and an elite high performance team member by age 12. Jennifer received a Full-ride NCAA DIV-1 gymnastics scholarship to Towson University in Baltimore, MD where she completed her Bachelors of Science degree, in Business. Post University, Jennifer's business career thrived, traveling globally and receiving consecutive promotions into higher levels of executive management.
And while incredibly successful, there was always a feeling of loss since retiring from gymnastics. Realizing that performing, training, and acrobatics provided a sense of fulfillment that could not be replaced, Jennifer jumped wholeheartedly into the world of stunt performing and hasn't looked back. Her gymnastics background has given her a foundation that has helped her truly excel as a stunt woman.
Jennifer recently completed a full-time run on The CW's Supergirl, as the lead stunt double for Supergirl Actor Melissa Benoist. Currently she can be found working on many different shows, as both a stunt performer and stunt actor.
