Fool's Gold: Echoes of the Past

Jenna “Dingo Doodles” Woldenga has been a storyteller and artist ever since she learned how to speak her first words and hold a crayon. She grew up in the Okanagan Valley in British Columbia, Canada, and started her artistic career immediately after graduating high school, producing a weekly webcomic series while attending the Guru Digital Arts College in Alberta. In 2018, she launched her YouTube channel, Dingo Doodles, which was supposed to be a side hobby, but YouTube had different ideas and her videos soon garnered millions of views in record time and turned her hobby into a full-blown career. Her voice acting has since been featured in multiple animated shorts, as well as video games such as Solasta: Crown of the Magister.
