Jennifer's interest in opera began when performing nearly all the alto and mezzo soprano roles in Gilbert & Sullivan operettas. Since graduating from the Victoria College of the Arts, Jennifer has sung with the Victoria State Opera, Australian Opera, the State Opera of South Australia, Royal Philharmonic Society and Brisbane City Opera.  She spent some six months with Opera Queensland understudying Marte in Faust and Mistress Quickly in Falstaff and performed in concert with the Australian Army Band in the Voices Festival in NSW.

Jennifer's principal roles include The Mother in The Consul, Florence Pike in Albert Herring and Miss Todd in Menotti's The Old Maid and the Thief.
