aloha,
I'm Jenny!
To say that I have embraced the "maker movement" is an understatement. As long as I can remember I have been attracted to the many skills we as a society have abandoned - cooking, gardening, sewing, woodworking, and more. If I can opt to make something myself, I do. Rather than passively consume, I aim to intentionally build and create.
Great design shouldn't solely be enjoyed by those who can afford it. Much of the satisfaction of creating something is personal - there's something captivating about building with your own two hands - but I often find it is most rewarding when it has a positive social impact. As a designer it is my responsibility to be compassionate, committed, and build a relationship with the community involved so that "good intentions" actually result in creating positive, lasting change.
