Bengal Bio: Jennie Swensen

After high school, Jennie attended Utah State University, where she studied interior design. After 2 years there, she served a mission in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Upon returning, she finished her undergraduate studies at the University of Utah and received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2008.

A couple years before graduating, she weighed her career options and decided to pursue a degree in medical illustration. She decided to attend UT Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas. She will complete her Masters degree in Biomedical Communications (Medical Illustration) next month. She is currently working on her thesis and looking for a job. She has a professional website at jenswenstudios.com.

Since high school, Jennie has enjoyed traveling with her parents and brother to Israel, Jordan, Egypt, Turkey, Greece, Western Europe, the Caribbean, and Japan. She hopes to someday travel to Eastern Europe and Asia.

Jennie has great high school memories. Some of her favorites include attending football games, ditching her dates at dances to dance with her girl friends, Ms. McClure’s AP Art class, Ms. Lee’s Humanities class, and Ms. Payne’s cartwheels. She is still close friends with Ms. Payne (now MRS. Navarro)!
