With a professional background in business and entrepreneurship, Jess was an integral part of her family’s business from 2009 to 2024.

Creative expression has been a constant thread throughout her life. From an early age, Jess has experimented with a variety of artistic forms, developing a unique voice that blends personal storytelling with a sense of universal connection. Her current work is driven by a desire to create meaningful, uplifting experiences that encourage viewers to slow down and see themselves—and the world around them—with greater appreciation.
Jess continues to develop her practice through ongoing exploration, commissions, and series-based projects that speak to both individual narratives and collective emotion.
Artist Statement
At the heart of my work is a desire to explore what gives life meaning. Whether through nature-inspired visuals or reflective written pieces, I create to hold space for deep thought, emotional connection, and quiet transformation. My art invites viewers to slow down, look inward, and recognize beauty—not only in the world around them, but within themselves.
Rooted along the shores of Georgian Bay, Ontario, and shaped by a lifelong creative instinct, my practice draws on the rhythms of the natural world as mirrors for the human experience. I am especially drawn to moments that evoke self-love, vulnerability, and clarity—expressed through texture, tone, and symbolism.
With a background in business and over 15 years in a family-run enterprise, I bring intention and structure to a process that is ultimately about openness, feeling, and human connection. My hope is that each piece offers not just something to look at, but something to feel—reminding people that they are seen, and that there is magic in their everyday story.
