Early life
She started out in humble circumstances in a family of six growing up in a home of less than 1,000 square feet in a small town outside Portland, Oregon. While running her own house cleaning service with her little sister, Jennifer developed a strong work ethic and a keen understanding of how a home functions. Her first experience in retail came from working at a local grocery store in the apparel department. She cultivated a sense of design while helping her mother sew draperies and make furniture. She learned to be resourceful with what little her family had. Jennifer attended a short trade program in Portland.

Career
She founded Jennifer Adams Design Group, LLC, in 1999. Over the next fifteen years she blossomed into a well-known and award-winning designer with projects for airport, residential and resort properties that were valued at over one billion dollars.

Jennifer then earned the role of on-air designer for nationally syndicated The Better Show, where she’s been a regular cast member for the last seven seasons.
