Sometimes a good run of the resume is the best way to capture a person's wide-reaching interest. Jenedy Paige is a woman we're in awe of. She's a mom, an artist, and a ninja. She's actually known as "the art ninja." It doesn't get much cooler than that!

She's an award winning artist, and you'll most likely recognize some of her stunning work. She's also an American Ninja Warrior. She's competed in the competition for many years and she coaches at a ninja gym in Lehi. She's also a mom. A mom that's easy to brag about.

We were so thrilled to have Jenedy in our studio to talk about her passions, trials, and lessons that shaped her life.
