Jill Barlow, BBA
My degree comes from MSSU in Joplin MO. I started college at PSU as a music performance major, so I've always that artsy thing inside. I have worked for a non profit organization for a number of years where I mastered the art of event coordination. Nobody knows how to put on an event better than Enactice.
My last 10 years has been with Nexstar Broadcasting (KOLR10) where I focused on the digital side of advertising. Digital has just exploded and there is no going back. As a tech junkie I love feeding the junkie in me as well as the artsy thing.

Tonya Crowe Barlow, MFA
As a young teen with a huge imagination, my writing was published in an anthology, lighting the still-burning fire for living a creative life. In my undergrad years, I yearned to be a documentary filmmaker, so I consumed how to be a photographer and film editor. As life happens to us all, I took jobs as a graphic designer. But I never stopped learning about creating, writing and growing as an artist. I’ve done some professional design work for amazing companies, like Disney/Pixar and fulfilled my academic goals of earning an MFA from SCAD. I teach as an adjunct and nurture my insatiable hunger for creativity.
