She earned a BA in Journalism from Georgia State University and a MA in Critical and Creative Thinking from the University of Massachusetts Boston. Her street photographs, made in New York City, Atlanta, San Francisco, and London, incorporate window reflection to blend interiors with surrounding street scenes. These ephemeral moments, captured on transparency film, are printed full frame to share the entirety of the image Jill composed in her camera’s viewfinder.

Her work is also featured in Claude Loupiac’s book La Ville: Entre Représentations et Réalités, published in 2005 by CNDP.
