Professor Jewel supervises the Appellate Ligation Clinic at the University of Tennessee College of Law, where she also teaches Entertainment Law, Torts, and Legal Writing. She came to teach at UT from Atlanta's John Marshall Law School, where, in addition to teaching Entertainment Law, she taught legal writing and legal skills courses and served as Director of Legal Writing. Her teaching is informed by several years of practice experience as a commercial litigator with the New York City firm of Wachtel & Missry, LLP. 

Professor Jewel's scholarship focuses on the intersections between culture, law, technology, and rhetoric, with a particular interest in unmasking how rhetorical and cultural forces impact legal and social outcomes. Her articles have appeared journals such as the Maryland Law Review, the Columbia Journal of Gender and the Law, the Yale Journal of Law & Technology, the University of Southern California Interdisciplinary Law Journal, Buffalo Law Review, and the Minnesota Journal of Law, Science, and Technology.
