Motown bred and raised, Jas fell in love with all things glamorously vintage at the young age of 6 when she first laid eyes on pictures of The Supremes in their gorgeous glitzy ensembles; her adoration for classic fashions was further cemented after viewing Dorothy Dandridge sashay across the tv screen in Carmen Jones. Therefore it was no surprise that she went onto obtain a degree in fashion marketing and gain experience working with vintage apparel.

It was due to those fashion courses and work experiences that the concept for Pearled Shoebox developed. However, it was not until the birth of her daughter in 2013 that she was prompted to take action on her idea and leap from the corporate fashion world into entrepreneurship. Jas, now resides in Chicago IL, with her vivacious daughter & magical baby boy. When not working at PSB Vintage she works as a fashion researcher and personal stylist.
