She continued her interests in fashion and runway modeling representing Sears, Penneys and several other major department stores for shows in and around the Charleston area. In 1992, her family moved to Bluff City, Tennessee and shortly thereafter got into the real estate business, eventually opening Mountain Homes Realty in 1998. In addition to being indirectly involved in real estate for the last 12 years, she graduated from Sullivan East High school with an honors diploma and continued her education at Northeast State College. She fulfilled her life dream of being a model competing in the Miss United States Teen competition in Tampa Florida as Miss East Tennessee. Although she has given up modeling as a career, the experience with dealing with the public has helped her in all aspects of life. She had three years experience in sales with Fairfield Marketing when she resigned as Manager to pursue the family business in Real Estate. Jennifer and husband Jason Webb reside in Bluff City and are in the process of building their custom designed first home.
