Meet Jess
the Maker Behind Blue Collar Babe Candles
At blue collar babe candle, we offer a unique shopping experience fueled by passion and purpose. As a truck driver by trade, I'm on a mission to spark conversations and empower women. Every purchase supports this mission, driving forward the narrative of gender equality and inclusivity in traditionally male-dominated industries. With our curated collection of products, you not only receive quality hand crafted items but also become a part of a movement towards change. Join us in breaking barriers, celebrating diversity, and making a difference with a witty blue collar spin!
When I’m not being graceful hand-pouring beautiful soy candles you might find me embracing my gritty side riding my motorcycles. Or behind the wheel of a semi truck. I hold my class a cdl with all endorsements and have driven a variety of rigs, from 18-speed manual peterbilts to mack and kenworth trucks—team pete, baby! I’ve hauled everything from dry van and tankers to reefers, and right now, my favorite is driving semi end dumps.
Having spent weeks at a time as an over-the-road driver covering the lower 48, I’m now focused on local routes. If you hear “jersey” on the cb, that’s me.
As an entrepreneur at heart, I embrace hard work and love getting my hands dirty while chasing my passions. I also enjoy hosting fellow wanderlust souls and trades workers at my airbnb where I get to meet amazing people from all walks of life & trades.
I hope my creations bring you joy, warmth, & inspiration.
Work hard. Relax lit. Burn bright, babes!
Jess aka "Jersey"

Why Us?
Craftsmanship with Purpose - At Blue Collar Babe Candles, we prioritize both luxury & committed to sustainability while telling a story. Our soy wax is responsibly sourced, and our production practices are eco-friendly, ensuring our products are as kind to the planet as they are to your home and business. We believe that self-care should be indulgent yet responsible, and we ensure that every product we create is made with care for both the environment and the people who enjoy them.
But our products go beyond aesthetics—they are part of a bigger story and message. Every purchase helps promote illustrations and stories of women who excel in traditionally male-dominated fields, from electricians to truck drivers to women in STEM. These women are not just breaking stereotypes; they are shaping the future of their industries. Our unique packaging & products tells their stories, helping spread awareness about the skilled trades and inspire women to pursue their passions without limitations.
According to Global Industrial, only 4% of all trades workers are women, while 96% are men, and fewer than 2% of pipe layers, plumbers and steamfitters are women.
