Jennifer Knight is a proudly trans, multidisciplinary powerhouse whose career spans creativity, entrepreneurship, education, and hands-on innovation. Based between Toronto and the United States, Jennifer has built a life defined by reinvention and resilience. She is a filmmaker, guitar teacher, management consultant, entrepreneur, and English-as-a-Second-Language teacher — embodying the true spirit of a Jill-of-All-Trades.

Her professional experience is remarkably diverse. Jennifer has worked across market development, sales targeting, marketing strategy, customer service, product and graphic design, advertising promotion, and logistics — with an exceptional command of North American operations thanks to her extensive travel and on-the-ground expertise. She has also operated in customs brokerage, served as medical and legal para-staff, and provided emergency first aid support.

Equally at home in creative and technical environments, Jennifer buys and sells vintage musical instruments, designs and renovates construction projects, builds with green technology and SIPS panels, and even operates heavy equipment. Her ability to move fluidly between industries is rooted in curiosity, adaptability, and a lifelong commitment to learning.

Jennifer’s journey as a trans woman informs her work with empathy, determination, and a drive to open doors for others. Whether she’s behind a camera, teaching a student, consulting on strategy, or building something entirely new, Jennifer brings integrity, passion, and fearless creativity to everything she touches.
