Operations Manager & Lead Instructor
Since Jessica and her husband Anthony purchased their first home, she has been a DIY, hands on, empowering type of gal. Her top accomplishments include remodeling a kitchen, building a “Martha Stewe landscaping of their 3 acres. The backyard now includes a perennial and vegetable garden, a children’s play area, and a deck with attached stone paver sitting area.

We hold Jessica accountable (in a good way) for our love of Annie Sloan chalk paint and waxes, as that was our first introduction to the products. Part of her kitchen remodeling was working with the worlds most respected paint and Annie Sloan techniques on her kitchen cabinets. The end result was a huge success. Her forte is working with guests during the workshop on the colors choices they will be using to create their pallet boards. She loves to share her abilities and it shows on the finished projects.

Katianna applies her training in Photoshop, Illustrator and wood shop to ensure she creates quality marketing flyers for our events. When she is instructing at our workshops, she applies her background from working with the UIC Healing Arts Group. The group was founded to reach out to public school children in Chicago and teach them various forms of art, including painting, pottery, dancing and acting.

Kathy is married and a proud mother of 3 college aged students. With a background in teaching preschool children and essential skills in crafts, she is a perfect fit at Glitter Your Pallet. Kathy was one of the guests to attend a Glitter Your Pallet workshop in the beginning months of the business. She attended 5 more classes because she loves working on unique and environmentally projects that look great in her home. We took notice of her passion for pallet boards and naturally asked her to join the team. One of her biggest thrills is seeing the guests finish up the evening taking pride and feeling proud of their pallet board. She ensures that everyone has help and the guidance they need in the 3 hours of painting. Be sure to ask Kathy to see pictures of her 6 completed Glitter Your Pallet boards, each one is fabulous! Plus we’re quite sure she’s not done adding to her collection as she says, “You won’t find anything quite like it!”
