Jenn Ely

Jenn Ely quickly fell in love with the landscape of the West Coast after moving there, just like Minerva did. The singular beauty of the nature there was unlike anything she had ever seen before, and she is grateful to Minerva for preserving the desert to be enjoyed by nature lovers for years to come. Jenn is known for illustrating children's books such as The Gardener of Alcatraz and for her work on animated films like Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio (the 2023 Best Animated Feature Oscar winner).
