Who is Dr. Sew and Sew?
Hello! I’m Dr. Jennifer Risk, a queer femme creativity coach, teacher and designer based in Victoria, BC. A costumer by training, I am currently Department Head in Fashion Design at Pacific Design Academy. In 2021, at the culmination of a 5-year hiatus from the arts, I earned a PhD in Human Geography (social science) from The Ohio State University. Prior to graduate studies I worked as a Student Success Coach for graduate students at The Academy of Art University. I have a passion for mid-century design, high-concept live performance art, and helping my fellow creatives make their big visions a reality!
Some challenges I’m adept at supporting my clients through:
-helping professionals in non-creative fields find and nurture their creative spark
-helping creatives navigate cross-discipline collaboration
-helping creatives overcome their mental blocks and get unstuck
-helping creatives develop rituals and processes that allow them to work with as much ease as possible
-helping overwhelmed creatives organize and prioritize their many projects
-helping creatives clarify their big amorphous visions and break them down into manageable steps
-supporting creatives as they explore new modes, mediums or disciplines
If any of these issues resonates with you, or if you have an entirely new challenge I haven’t yet imagined,
Measurable results are the name of the game
