Meet the Team

  • Lena Lee

    FOUNDER/CO-PRESIDENT

    I started Heartistry out of a passion for mental health awareness and a desire to expand my creativity. Over the past few years, art and writing have been my escape—a way to process, reflect, and heal. Through Heartistry, I hope others can also find joy in expressing themselves while making a meaningful impact.

  • Jane Ni

    FOUNDER/CO-PRESIDENT

    I started Heartistry as a way to combine my passion for the arts with my deep commitment to mental health. As a photographer, painter, and leader in several organizations, I’ve seen first-hand how creative expression can uplift others, and I want to share that hope with children who need it the most.
