Hi, I'm Jenna!

I am a 22-year-old senior at James Madison University, where I am pursuing a degree in Digital Marketing and Communication. I was born and raised in the small town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, and for most of my life, I never ventured far from home. Living in a place where everyone knew everyone, I became resistant to change and afraid of stepping outside my comfort zone. However, everything changed when I chose to attend James Madison University.

Not only was JMU out of state, but I did not know a single person from my high school who would be going there. This leap into the unknown made me anxious and uncertain about what to expect, but I quickly realized that stepping out of my comfort zone was one of the most important things I could do for my personal growth. Being at JMU forced me to adapt, push through my fears, and embrace new experiences. I had to make new friends, navigate unfamiliar environments, and take on challenges that I had never faced before. It was during this time that I started to see myself change. I grew more confident in my abilities, became more outgoing, and learned how to embrace change rather than fear it. The experiences I have had at JMU have shaped me into a stronger, more resilient individual.

Now, as a senior, I can confidently say that choosing to attend JMU has been the root of my transformation. My time at JMU has given me the confidence to be unapologetically myself, to take on leadership roles, and to approach life with a bold and open mindset. Looking back, I know that stepping outside my comfort zone was the best decision I could have made, and it has shaped me into the person I am today.

More About Me

Since I was young, I’ve always been drawn to the creative side of life. Whether it was through arts and crafts, using my imagination, or simply finding new ways to express myself, I was constantly seeking out ways to unleash my creativity. This passion for creativity, combined with growing up in a family that owns two small businesses, naturally led me to marketing. I witnessed firsthand the power of effective communication, branding, and storytelling in building a business. The blend of creativity and strategy in marketing resonated deeply with me, and I realized that I could combine my artistic instincts with my business background to make a real impact.

My creative side fuels many of my hobbies, including content creation, art, and fashion. I have always enjoyed experimenting with different mediums to create artwork, from paintings to collages, and I often find myself incorporating these elements into my digital content. These hobbies allow me to merge my artistic vision with the world around me, and I am excited to continue applying this creative energy to my professional journey in marketing.

When my creative juices are not flowing, you can usually find me with my closest friends, cooking some delicious food, or discovering new musical artists.
