Instructor Bio
Hey there,
I'm glad you're here! Before we embark on this educational journey together, I thought you should get to know a little about me ...
I was born and raised in Tampa, FL. I spent the first half of my life in the Arts, primarily in the Performing Arts with a sprinkle of Visual Arts in the mix. When I started college, I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life. I tried on a few majors, until I ended up getting my first Associate's degree in TV/Radio Broadcasting and Mass Communication. I was THE female voice of our college station. When I continued on to my Bachelor's degree, I decided to pursue a double major in Dance and Psychology, while also working as a performer and dance instructor. It got to be so overwhelming, the creative fire inside me was quickly snuffed out, and I ended up dropping out of school altogether. Having lost my sense of purpose and direction in life, I decided to do the most logical thing -- I enlisted in the military!
Thankfully, my Associate's degree came in handy and I was given the opportunity to work as a Navy Journalist. I spent the next 10 years writing articles, taking photos, and experiencing more than I ever anticipated. In that time, I got to travel to and live in places like South Korea, Pearl Harbor, and Washington, DC. I also had the opportunity to meet some pretty amazing people, to include my husband. By the time I separated, I had finally managed to finish my Bachelor's (in Business Management & Marketing), and I walked away as a published writer and photographer.
A few years and two kids later, I went back for my Master's degree in Creative Writing, right here at Saint Leo! I was an Officer in Student Veterans of America and a Founding Member of Omega Delta Sigma, and really got to make my mark as one of the few female veterans on campus. It was also during my Master's, where I rediscovered and reengaged with my love of the Arts -- Performing, Visual, and Literary.
Which ultimately leads us to this moment, in this place, where I have the privilege to get to know who you are through this Creative Writing endeavor we will experience together.
Thank you for trusting me with your stories,
Jennifer Harman
