Hey, I’m Jenn
I‘m an organizational designer, intuitive creativity expert, and founder of Blue-Eyed Birds Creative. I help difference makers become more creative, curious and strategic by challenging the ways they think about their business and helping them to connect to the emotional side of their work.
I have worked on all kinds of projects ranging from helping foster care agencies create a mentorship program for youth aging out of the system, supporting change and shifting organizational culture at fortune 500 organizations, and helping specialized military experts identify and classify a strategic genius archetype.
In the beginning of my career I spent several years working in behavior management and mental health, supporting individuals with serious and persistent mental illnesses. I found that when I helped clients tap into their own creative expression, they experienced more joy, connected to me more deeply as their counselor, and their symptoms seemed to improve. This began my interest in the study of creativity and its potential for releasing unconscious emotional trauma.
When I’m not working, I enjoy reading, making art, taking care of my cat and plant children, getting lost (and found) in nature, and great conversation over a good cup of coffee.
My Educational Background
MS in Creativity, Innovation and Change Leadership
BA in Personality Psychology and English Literature
What you should know if we work together
Be okay with being uncomfortable - Change is hard and you are going to feel things that your fear will tell you not to. Do it anyway.
Get ready to do the work - Sustainable change doesn’t happen over night and there’s no quick fix for transformational success.
It’s always about emotions - Trust me.
You are creative - Whether you work as a creative or not, you are just as likely as anyone to have great ideas.
Failure is a part of the creative process - But it is not an indication of your value.
“Fear is always triggered by creativity, because creativity asks you to enter into realms of uncertain outcome. This is nothing to be ashamed of. It is, however, something to be dealt with.”

Know how to listen for your intuition when making decisions, instead of your fear
