"What can one say about Anna Jennings? Smart as whip. Insightful as heck. And with a penchant for visual storytelling while wielding words. Anna's presentations, directing, and design layouts always invite the eye to help the mind understand. What could be convoluted becomes clear. Anna is a perceptive, quick study who can communicate in succinct, effective ways." -Elaine Romero, Playwright
