Jennifer Blackwell started with Vivid Optical in 1987, and she has been Practice Manager for the last 32 years. She was awarded a Diploma in Optical Dispensing from the Dispensing Opticians Guild of Australia in 1993. As well as running the practice in Launceston, she is central to the sourcing of the fine designer eyewear we are famous for.

Outside of the optometry practice, her priorities lie with family - her husband Peter, sons Cameron and Jared, and of course Oscar and Lily, her Siamese cats. She counts art, literature, gardening and travel among her interests.

Jennifer is now a very proud grandmother, and loves spending time with her beautiful granddaughters, Rosie and Ruby.
