about Jen
Jen received her MFA in Visual Communication Design from VCU [Virginia Commonwealth University] in 1997 and has since taught Graphic Design at several institutions in Virginia, California, and Oregon.
Her teaching expertise is in graphic design history and processes, typography, and logo / identity design. She has conducted research in and published on such topics as signs and symbols, design history, book arts, and travel (as a metaphor for design and as design inspiration).
Much of Jen’s personal painting, collage, and assemblage work celebrates her travels and the objects that help create a sense of place, but also the day-to-day experience and objects that help define one's identity where they live and work.
