Born to a teenage runaway, Jemma is a product of unplanned teenage pregnancy that forced her mother to leave home at the age of seventeen; her father remaining unknown. She was born and raised in an all-female commune led by a man named Lucas. Jemma had barely turned three years old when her mother (intentionally or not) left her in one of the alleys at a hardware store in Midtown. Upon close investigation into the matter, some people said she had left in a hurry, while others are convinced she never even looked back while walking out of the store. Luckily, that's the moment Jemma's fate turned around for the better. Despite all the efforts the police and the child care workers put into finding her mother or anyone else who may regain custody of the young girl, she was soon declared an orphan and placed under foster care. Of course, since she was found on their property, the Lawsons offered to become her foster parents while the authorities kept searching for her relatives. Unfortunately, without any leads, the search was soon ended and a couple years later Jemma officially became part of the Lawsons. Due to her young age when all of it happened and the support and love she got from her foster family, she adjusted quite easily into her new life. She had always dreamt of a loving family, despite how close the commune community was, and having an older brother was the missing piece she never knew she needed in her life until she got one. Even if in the years to come they would get into some small quarrels as any siblings do and at times his protectiveness felt more like a curse than a blessing (especially during her teenage years) but she always knew he did it all out of good intentions and there was no doubt she'd do the same for him or their other two sisters, too.
At the age of sixteen Jemma got her first real job outside of helping out in the family’s business. It was at a local tea shop owned by a lovely woman named Rosemary Breslin. She taught her all about growing plants and herbs on her own, then collecting the leaves and flowers, drying them and brewing various blends and mixtures. Aside from that, she also taught her the healing powers of different plants and herbs and the way she could successfully create all-natural remedies. It was something Jemma didn’t know she had affinity towards but the thing she loved the most was the calming atmosphere in the shop. It felt like a second home to Jemma. She was eighteen years old when Rosemary finally broke her silence and confessed she was her maternal grandmother.
Deep down Jemma always knew the Lawsons were not her true family; there was barely any similarity between her and her parents or her brother, who both looked alike, yet that didn’t change how she felt about them or the fact that they were her family more than the people who had given her life and then abandoned her. Still, hearing the truth being said out loud was met with mixed feelings on her behalf. On one side, she was tempted to learn more about her mother and the reasons behind her decision to give her up; on the other, the closer she got to Rosemary and the fact that she didn’t know how to bring the news to the Lawsons (especially after Simon’s decline in health) made her feel like a complete traitor. In the end, the pressure became too much for her to handle and Jemma decided to leave Wilmington for a little while, spending the time traveling.
She returned just in time for Rosemary’s passing six years ago. It came as no surprise to many that the woman decided to leave her tea shop to Jemma, considering how close they were and how Rosemary practically taught her in the manner of becoming her successor. Yet only Jemma knew the real reasons Rosemary probably had while writing down her last will.

Her name, Jemma, means 'dove' in Hebrew, so she got a tattoo (probably while traveling or as a teen) of a small dove behind her right ear.
She's known for fostering animals in need whether it's one she found on the streets or are currently looking for their forever homes but the vet clinic can't afford to keep them any longer. That's actually how she got her kitten, Piper.
She's also proud owner of a one-years-old samoyed named Olaf.
