About

With a BFA in Studio Arts and Psychology, Jennifer is continuing her graduate studies at Concordia University as an MA in Creative Arts Therapies (Art Therapy) candidate. She has also recently completed a GrCert in Play Therapy and hopes to use art-making and play as accessible media for children and youth to work through mental illnesses and trauma in clinical and community settings.

​

With inspiration from personal struggles, she strives to tell stories through her artwork. Jennifer's art practice is very personal and embodies her own life experiences; she uses this as a way of opening up a dialogue for conversations about mental illness. The goal of her work is to connect with the audience on a personal level and make them not feel alone or ashamed of their own struggles. This passion for sharing her story through her art has sparked a strong interest in expressive arts therapy and the effect it has on those who suffer from mental illnesses.

​

As a graphic designer with a fine arts background in painting and drawing, Jennifer also enjoys combining traditional work with digital work, often working with a mixed-media approach. She is always looking to gain more experience in UI/UX design, web design, motion graphics, and marketing/advertising.

​

Outside of her art practice, Jennifer loves throwback music from the 2000s, autumn, reading, working out, knitting, cozy cabins, and horror movies.
