“I wanted to be Peggy Flemming or Shaun Cassidy’s girlfriend. Being an artist was a given.”

Jennifer Rodman has an artistic lineage; “My father went to Layton School of Art (MIAD’s predecessor), so I followed in his footsteps with no goal intended other than doing/creating my art. I chose Printmaking as my major and have always been interested in fashion.”

After graduation, these passions led “quickly to wholesaling vintage clothing to Japan.” The next step was to open the Yellow Jacket Vintage Clothing Store in Milwaukee, as well as a design business. “I hope to continue to be my own boss. This works out well.”
