About the instructor, Jen Barnhardt
Jen is a certified teacher in CO and the owner, designer, and instructor of Stoic Sage Designs. She taught High School English for 10 years and then took a break from the classroom to pursue creative endeavors and taught herself jewelry design. After moving to Colorado from Texas, Jen began taking classes at Silver Peak Studio to learn metalsmithing, and she is mentored by Jen Lesea-Ames, the owner of Silver Peak Studio.
Her “why” is to inspire youth and provide them opportunities to express their creativity.
While she loves making jewelry, she missed teaching which is why she has now merged her passions and experience to lead this class.
A few of her favorite things are: hiking, reading, bike riding, and camping with her husband and their two kids, River and Bodie.
