Additional Notes on This Character:
Jenell has had tough beginnings. She was raised by her mother a single woman with 4 kids. At 7 her mother was injured in a surgery and would be disabled for the rest of her life. Constantly in the hospital, Jenell helped raise her siblings with her older sister Rose, They all had to grow up fast. Around 15 her mother finally got the call for a transplant to make her life better. It failed to take and she passed just after her sweet 16. Tensions with her sister grew higher, it ended ultimately in a brawl that forced her to choose peace over family. She was taken into foster care and lived in a group home until 18. She's lived a typical college life and now she is about to graduate, shake some hands and start her career. Everyone tells her that things will be better. She has her whole life ahead of her. And if this "Art thing" doesn't work out she can always go back to school. Then the world she knows ends.
