{Jenni}
Introduction:
Hello Team DSK! My name is Jennifer, but many know me as Jenni or Reiko; Jenni shortened from my first name and Reiko from my days of studying Japanese language in my high school and college. I’m 22 years old, and I’m working to finish my undergraduate degree in Business Administration. I’m pursuing my dream in the culinary field; my biggest passion since I was a child has always been food – I love food, as well as making new dishes and eating my work! One day I would love to either manage my own café or restaurant, or move up to become an executive chef. Until then, I have a blog that I try to update often, and I plan on opening a separate blog dedicated to my recipes and other food finds. J Meanwhile, I work as a part-time bartender in a retirement home – I know it may sound pretty bizarre making drinks for the elderly, but I love my job! I live with my Filipino family: my parents and two younger brothers, both who have autism. I love adventures and playing sports (tennis and volleyball mostly), but to unwind I love to read, knit, play video games or chat with new friends online… Oh, let’s not forget blogging! I’ve become fond of traveling recently and would love the travel the world someday… I’m a simple girl, living my life by having fun and with a smile on my face.

Why I want to represent DSK:
I learned about DSKJewelry in the beginning of this year through YouTuber Lindi from Bubzbeauty – I watched one of her videos talking about her DSKJewelry necklace and I thought, “…wow, that’s a really pretty necklace she’s wearing, but where can I get something like that?” That’s when I visited the website, learned about Stephanie and her works and the next thing I knew… I bought (thus far) 4 pieces of jewelry! The moment I opened my first package, I was very happy and surprised to see how beautiful my necklace and earrings were when they sparkled in the light! I wear my jewelry during my days off from work, and I’ve received a lot of compliments from my friends and family members. (I even got compliments when I window-shopped in a Swarovski shop recently!) Since buying my first pieces, I’ve told my friends about DSKJewelry, and I keep an eye out for new pieces that I would love to own. Recently I came to realize a new philosophy: I believe that each person, like each piece of jewelry, is made unique and original but never a copy. Stephanie’s talent and artistry in her jewelry really represents that and from that came success. Her successes have inspired me to pursue my own dreams and make them come true. This is what DSKJewelry means to me and I want to represent myself as a Model to inspire others to succeed, that they are beautiful and unique and to also check out and support her jewelry.
