Jayla Jones is an emerging artist from Saint Paul Minnesota, where she was born and raised. Deeply connected to her home state, Jayla is eager to grow her creative skills and share her voice through art. Her journey as an artist began through her Aunt Jacy, who, along with Jayla’s cousins, has long been involved in creative artmaking.

Qualifications

At In Progress, Jayla hopes to deepen her understanding of videography and advance her technical skills in camerawork. She has already experimented with filmmaking, creating a video about her mother and editing it using Adobe Video Editor on In Progress computers—an experience that sparked her interest in developing her craft further.

Outside of video work, Jayla enjoys spending her free time drawing, coloring, and sketching, expressing her creativity in many forms. She is looking forward to starting a new project with In Progress and is excited about the chance to learn and grow as an artist. Looking ahead, Jayla envisions continuing with videography and aims to build a strong foundation of skills that will help her expand the content on her YouTube channel. She is dedicated to honing her art so she can share more stories and creative works with her community and beyond.
