Jessica Manchester

Teaches at Brooklyn Brainery

Jessica grew up in New England and graduated from UMass Amherst with a
degree in Art History.  Since graduation she has worked in multiple
Galleries and Fromageries around New York City.  After years in the art
world she took time off to travel to France and learn from local
masters, in the heart of Normandy, the delicate dichotomy and fastidious
work ethic of local cheese making. Traveling around Normandy and
sharing stories and cheese with other farmers she quickly learned the
importance of local cultivation. Since returning from France she has
focused her efforts on compiling her love, passion and knowledge of
cheese into a comprehensive cheese book.
