I don't want Jeanann to represent a mandrill because she's actually a very kind, level headed girl, but I think she possesses a lot of the same physical traits as mandrills.
Mandrills are always fidgeting and picking at things and they can't sit entirely still for an extended period of time. Jeanann is like that too. She's always looking for something to do, especially because she's being forced to attend a long, (and what should be) boring family gathering (if it weren't for the Jason holding everyone at gun point part).
Like a mandrill, Jeanann usually doesn't "look, reach, then grab". She just grabs for things without looking most of the time. In terms of the Laban technique, she definitely slashes most of the time. This is very prevalent when Jeanann enters the stage for the first time. She slashes and attacks Jack like a mandrill. She is also very aggressive and uses eye contact to show that aggression. When she feels threatened, her eye contact is diminished (when Jason points the gun at her, she lowers her eyes) She is very animalistic and primitive in this sense.

Jeanann is also a lot like the young chimpanzees in this video (slashing):
