Hi, I'm Jane! I am recent graduate of James Madison University, where I earned my B.A. in Media Arts & Design with a concentration in Creative Advertising. I am dedicated to crafting visual narratives that captivate audiences and tell stories. I am especially interested in graphic design, art direction, and social media management.
Performing arts have always been a part of my life! Growing up you could always find me in a singing lesson or musical rehearsal. I continued to perform in college with my a cappella group, Note-oriety. Spending many years learning how to tell a story on a stage has helped me learn how to captivate an audience and leave a lasting impression.
