Jenny grew up in Oxford, Michigan where she started dance at the age of 5. She danced in the genres of tap, jazz, hip hop, lyrical and ballet and danced competitively in all of the genres except ballet, and she competed both regionally and nationally. In high school and during her college years, she taught tap and ballet to preschool dancers. After she graduated college with a bachelor’s in education, Jenny moved to Columbus and was a preschool teacher for a year and subsequently has been a 5th grade teacher at New Albany schools for twenty years. Her daughter has been a part of BBDC since she was 2, allowing Jenny to become very familiar with the students, families and staff at BBDC. She is very excited to put both her teaching and dancing passions back together and become a member of the BBDC staff!
