Jen received her BFA from the Cleveland Institute of Art in 2000. In her career she has spent her time as a painter, printmaker, papermaker and designer. She is currently working as an art director in Cleveland, Ohio.

Her current work is guided by curiosity and intuition—mostly consumed by the process itself. Playing with ideas of time, memory and space. Pieces are typically influenced by sifting through a collection of colors, shapes, textures, found written-on ledgers and notebooks—words from poems. Using various elements that share contrasting visual principles; Smaller, lighter, darker—or empty forms and spaces.
