Hi, I'm Jena!

Designer - Artist - Nerd - Dog Lover

linkedinme2.jpg

I am a Graphic Designer with 10 years of experience and multiple talents. My style is structured layouts and I shine during the research and planning stages. I am a firm believer that thoughtful approaches produce thought provoking designs. I am highly adaptable and will rise to every challenge. Research and analytics are in my nature. I am collaborative and innately a mentor. I enjoy opportunities, and need more of them, to problem solve and think in innovative ways. I believe in a balance between aesthetic and communication. I spend my day thinking about function and the consumer experience. I consider myself to be a true problem solver- I am not in it because it needs to be done but rather because I can't not thinking about it until the problem has be solved.

​

I love a challenge and am highly competitive. I play a lot of games, both video and table top, and have even been involved with designing a few. I love any and every opportunity to implement strategies and devise a plan to secure a victory. I am also an avid comic book reader, watch a fair amount of anime, have a vast knowledge of both the MCU and DCU and am enamored with dinosaurs. 

​

I am nerdy, athletic, innovative and creative, stern when I need to be and always a little silly. I spend my free time with my husband and our dogs Ember and Azula.  In my 'me time' I make custom dog tags, portraits and repair statues for collectors. I don't fit into any one box- no one should, and neither should designs.
