Artist. art director.
WOMAN WITH PURPOSE AND VISION.
HOWDY, I’M JAZZ.
My full name is Jazzmine N. Bustamante, and everyone calls me Jazz.
Much like jazz, I’m expressive by nature and curious at heart. I learn through play, and I do my best not to take myself too seriously. Though, at times, life can call for that too.
My creative gift is that I have a knack for finding the miracle in the mundane. I like to explore the essence of things and find ways to amplify that through visual storytelling. To me, everything has a story to tell; one that connects us to the beauty of life and our humanity.
And yes, it does get that deep because that’s what brings me joy as a creative. Amplifying valuable, genuine, relatable stories. So, on every project I touch, I carry that with me.
Also, because my granddad told me that pronouncing someone’s name right is a sign of respect, here’s how to pronounce mine:
Jazz, like the music. Mine, like the possessive pronoun. Last name, Boo-stah-mahn-te.
