Professor Jewel has been teaching law-related courses for more than 15 years. Prior to teaching at the University of Tennessee, she taught at Atlanta’s John Marshall Law School, where she also served as Director of Legal Skills and Professionalism. Her teaching is informed by several years of practice as a commercial litigator with the New York City firm of Wachtel, Masyr, & Missry, LLP.

Jewel frequently presents on legal writing, legal education, and professionalism topics at national and international academic conferences. Most recently, she has spoken at the Legal Writing Institute’s Biennial Conference, The International Conference on Legal Education, Hosted by Bahcesehir Universitesi and the Turkish Bar Association in Ankara, Turkey, and The International Legal Ethics Conference at City University College of Law, London, UK.
