About Her

BEHIND THE SCENES

Jennifer Pappalardo’s passion for capturing the beauty of everyday life through imagery began at a young age when she first picked up a camera. Her interest in the art evolved during high school at Mount Washington Valley Careers & Technical Centers, where she joined the Visual Media program in 2014. Jennifer went on to pursue her love for storytelling and visuals at Rutgers University Newark in 2016, studying Video Production. With a deep adoration for both film and photography, Jennifer continuously pushes herself to create intricate works of art that set her apart from the crowd.

​

Jennifer’s career took a transformative turn when she joined The Drew Barrymore Show, where she learned the art department's craftsmanship and honed her production design skills. Over time, she grew within the industry, eventually becoming the Assistant Art Director for the show. This opportunity allowed her further to develop her expertise in visual storytelling and design. Along with her work in television, Jennifer founded PhatDaddy Films in 2020, where she continues to apply her creative direction and design skills across a variety of projects. Constantly pushing the boundaries of her craft, Jennifer is now recognized as one of the next revolutionary female creatives in the industry.
