Jenna grew up in San Diego, California, where she trained with Robyn Segel Shifren. At age 16, Jenna moved to Salt Lake City, Utah, to join Ballet West’s Professional Training Division. In 2022, Jenna moved to Cincinnati, Ohio, where she danced as a Trainee in Cincinnati Ballet’s Professional Training Division. Within both pre-professional programs, she has had the chance to perform in various George Balanchine ballets including Western Symphony, Divertimento No. 15, Raymonda Variations, and Walpurgisnaght. While at Cincinnati Ballet, Jenna is grateful to have had opportunities to perform with the corps in Cincinnati Ballet Company productions, including Victoria Morgan’s The Nutcracker, Septime Weber’s ALICE in Wonderland, and Anna-Marie Holmes’s Don Quixote. Aside from ballet Jenna is also currently studying online with the University of Colorado, Denver, working towards her marketing degree. Jenna is excited to join Alabama Ballet as an Apprentice for the 2024-2025 season.
