“Hi! I’m Jenny. I believe that we are all creative beings and deserve an avenue to express and honor that. I also know that we are all vastly different and learn about our creative identity in different ways. As a teacher, I enjoy building on strengths and adapting lesson format to creative a supportive environment for learning.”
