About Me

Hi, I’m Jennifer! I’m a communications professional, designer, photographer, and aspiring actor with one thing connecting it all: a love for storytelling.

I grew up in North Texas and graduated third in my class from Northwest High School in 2014. From there, I attended the University of North Texas, where I earned my bachelor’s degree in Strategic Communications and graduated summa cum laude.

My professional career began in graphic design and has grown into a decade of experience spanning branding, photography, marketing, social media, website management and strategic communications. Along the way, I’ve had the opportunity to help tell the stories of public schools and the people who make them special, from everyday moments in the classroom to major district-wide initiatives. My work has also been recognized with multiple TSPRA Star Awards for design and photography.

Storytelling for me doesn’t stop when the workday ends. I’m also pursuing acting, another creative outlet that challenges me in completely different ways while drawing on many of the same things I’ve always loved: creativity, curiosity and connecting with people.

Whether I’m behind a camera, in front of one, or lost in a creative project, I’m happiest when I’m making something meaningful. I’m a lifelong learner, a problem solver and someone who believes the best creative work starts with curiosity and a really good story.

My Top 5 Gallup Strengths

Many years of research conducted by The Gallup Organization suggest that the most effective people are those who understand their strengths and behaviors. These people are best able to develop strategies to meet and exceed the demands of their daily lives, their careers and their families. Learn more about what makes me unique by reading about my top 5 Gallup Strengths below.

  • I naturally see how people, experiences, and ideas are connected. I value meaningful relationships and believe that our experiences often have a greater purpose. This strength helps me recognize common ground, build connections, and understand how individual contributions fit into the bigger picture.

  • I naturally look for patterns, possibilities, and different paths forward. When faced with a challenge, I enjoy considering multiple options and identifying the approach that makes the most sense. I’m energized by problem-solving and finding creative, effective ways to move toward a goal.

  • I’m energized by the process of learning, growing, and discovering something new. I enjoy developing new skills, asking questions, and exploring ideas that expand my understanding. I’m motivated not only by achieving an end goal, but also by the growth and knowledge gained along the way.

  • I’m comfortable navigating change and adjusting when circumstances shift. Rather than becoming overly focused on a specific plan, I pay attention to what is happening in the moment and respond accordingly. This allows me to remain flexible, open-minded, and focused on finding a productive way forward.

  • I naturally notice what makes each person unique: their strengths, perspectives, motivations, and ways of working. I enjoy getting to know people individually and adapting my approach to meet their needs. This helps me build authentic relationships and recognize the distinct value each person brings to a team or situation.
