Hi, I’m Jenna

I’m a medical illustrator at the University of Georgia’s College of Veterinary Medicine.

I received my BFA in Painting from Southwestern University’s Sarofim School of Fine Arts in Texas, then spent my twenties in Austin working in the commercial print and ad agency world in a variety of creative roles. Just before the pandemic, I completed my Master Naturalist certification. This experience sparked an interest in science communication, which eventually led me to obtain my Medical Art MSc at the University of Dundee in Scotland.

Intersectionality, social equity, and sustainability are central to my canon. The goal of my illustration practice is to inspire curiosity about the natural world through meaningful visual storytelling that draws people in and provides a fresh lens for interpretation!

When I’m not behind a screen I split my time between gardening, woodworking, needle felting, trying out new plant-based recipes, doting on my rescue pups, and hiking/backpacking. Speaking of… click here to check out the detailed blog I kept of my 2021 Appalachian Trail thruhike!
