Jennifer Montenegro is a senior theatre major at Boston Arts Academy, she has been involved with theatre since the age of ten. Her first ever role was in How the Grinch stole Christmas, and she played the lead Cindy Who. At BAA she has found her love for the technical and behind the scenes work of theatre. As well it is where she found her love for writing once again. Writing short stories for class or just for fun is exciting to her. Her love for poetry and spoken word began with seeing her brothers at poetry slams or reading different types of poetry online. Jennifer will continue writing and creating pieces that will have a deep meaning to her; just like her two pieces “Morning Rise” and “The Moment After you Left.” They have a personal connection to her and where she has been in life.
