Hi, my name is Jen. I’m a health and neuro psychologist, and mindfulness-meditation practitioner. I just started my MFA in creative writing and literary translation at Queens College, and I couldn't be happier about pursuing this dream. I am an emerging writer - have not yet been published, but hope I’m en route to humbly sharing my voice/perspective!
I am most passionate about writing at the intersection where the mind, body, brain and spirit meet -about the holistic human experience- through the eyes of both, my own experience, and through my professional lens. I am touched by the profound pain that is both individually and collectively felt, how this pain can displace someone/myself from others and their/our own selves, and yet, the profound capacity for resilience, healing and growth.
