With backgrounds rooted in art, music, and psychology, Hans and Jennifer offer a unique lens for understanding diverse populations and creating space to captivate a variety of audiences. "Our approach relies on a strategy of utilizing personal and socio-cultural perspectives to convey stories, always looking to grow our foundational, creative vision."

Hans Kruger

Hans’ passion for creativity materialized as a child through drawing and making VHS productions for fun, then broadening into learning guitar and recording audio during his teen years. Hans earned an A.S. in Sound Design from Minneapolis Career and Technical College in 2017, and a B.A. in Media Production from Metropolitan State University in 2019. As a founder and former performing member of the local group “Black Market Brass,” Hans’ music has been aired by multiple Twin Cities radio stations as well as featured on television. Since joining GT Artistry in 2014, Hans co-created a documentary series highlighting Twin Cities craft breweries called "The Craft" airing in summer 2021 on TPT2 (Twin Cities PBS).

Jennifer Kruger

Jennifer is a Nationally Certified School Psychologist with a specific interest in the development of young children with disabilities, supporting families of color, and advocating for education policy change. As a BIPOC and transracial adoptee, her journey of understanding people, race, community, and inclusivity started at a young age. Jennifer brings a strong ability to convey information through writing and years of experience creating cross cultural connections throughout the Twin Cities. She was recently appointed by Governor Walz to a state council for young children with disabilities. She brings a unique lens of intercultural and social political awareness that is rooted in theory and lived experience.
