Jenna began her design journey by working with a local home builder in her early twenties. Walking through construction sites, flipping through blueprints, and reflecting on how a finished space could feel has all fueled her passion for design and the industry. After starting her family, she joined her family business where she worked for 17 years and was responsible for helping operations run smoothly. That early spark of passion for design never left her and joining Swatch felt like the perfect next step. Her experience of multitasking, problem solving, and thinking through projects and processes in a way that reflects clarity, integrity, and care makes her an essential asset to our team. Her love of supporting her teammates behind the scenes and anticipating needs before they arise all help her thrive in her role. When she is not coordinating projects, you can find her exploring the outdoors, discovering new restaurants, and soaking up every moment with her husband and two sons.

What inspires your creativity? – I love when a client has existing items that have a special meaning (a family heirloom, special pictures, a treasure from their travels) and seeing how we can try and incorporate those into their fresh space. I love that it makes the space layered and unique to the client living or working in them. Of course, watching our designers work through the process of making each space unique is inspiring in and of itself! I’m continually amazed at what they accomplish.

That early passion only grew stronger over time, leading her to earn her BFA in Interior Design from Samford University. For her, it’s not just about the finished space, it’s the process she loves most. From gathering inspiration to refining the details, there’s something magical about bringing a vision to life.
