Jenna grew up in Bedford, Texas and at an early age showed interest in anything creative- whether it was dancing, making movies that she cast, directed and acted in, to running her own business at the age of ten. Plastic jewelry and puff paint hats were in high demand in the nineties!
Her passion for performing soon transferred from the living room to the dance studio and stage. Social events were traded in for class and rehearsals—devoting over 30 hours per week at the studio during competition season. In high school at L.D. Bell in Hurst, Texas Jenna was involved in theatre and leadership organizations while dancing competitively, receiving over 100 awards including the title of National Solo Champion.
While attending Baylor University, Jenna acted in student films, performed on the dance team and held various internships. After interning at the historic Hippodrome Theatre, shadowing reporters at a local news station and creating marketing plans at a local advertising agency, Jenna still couldn’t shake that desire to perform.
Shortly after graduating with a degree in Journalism/PR with a concentration in Marketing and Management, Jenna signed with the Campbell Agency and began acting professionally in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. She soon earned her SAG card while working as a licensed mortgage loan officer.
Now residing in Los Angeles, Jenna looks forward to future performances and business ventures- never ruling out the possibility of a puff paint hat comeback…
