Get to know me a little bit better
Hi, I’m Jenniffer!
I’m the creative blogger + digital artist for Life is Messy and Brilliant. I started my blog in 2017 when I was in my senior of college. I was studying Biomedical Sciences but part of me was craving art.
Long story short, I failed a biology class which made me feel like a failure. I needed to find an outlet to get my confidence back. One day in 2017 I sat in my office chair, opened my computer, and started to create printables in Microsoft Word.
Quotes I live by:
- “The mirror is my only competition”
- “I’m not scared of a future that hasn’t happened yet”
- “Treat others the way you want to be treated”
- “Ask, the worst thing you can get is a no.”
- “A #2 pencil and a dream can take you anywhere.”
Fun Facts About Me
- I love listening to Kpop and watching Korean and Chinese series.
- You will always find me reading books about vampires and werewolves
- I am Colombian, but people often think I’m Filipina.
- Spanish is my native language. English is my second language.
- Brunch is my favorite time of the day!
- My favorite colors are pink, blue, and white.
- My room looks like an office supply store, I love collecting pens!
- I went vegan and started buying cruelty-free products about 6 years ago after meeting my dog, Rocky.
- I love animals, but elephants are my favorites. They are gentle introvert giants.
- I don’t know where I see myself in 5 years, I live one day at a time.
- I’m addicted to quotes! I use them everywhere all the time.
- It’s ok if you don’t know what you want to be when you grow up, we all eventually figure it out.
