Jen has worn many hats in her life, from insurance underwriter to professional dancer to the founder of a charity. This journey took her from a cubicle in Philadelphia to White House guest, and includes a flag being flown in her honor in Kandahar Air Field, Afghanistan.
Her work has been featured on ABC, KUSI, and the CW as well as the San Diego Union Tribune. Jen was invited to attend the inaugural White House Summit on “The United State of Women” as a Changemaker. She has also been a nominee for “Woman of the Year” by San Diego Magazine and “Women Who Mean Business” by the San Diego Business Journal. She was the recipient of the Inspiration Award from the Center for Wealth & Legacy, has been recognized for Outstanding Service by the California State Senate.
Throughout her rollercoaster life, Jen has learned the difference between what it means to be successful and what it means to be happy. She is best known for her talks on gratitude, resilience, and reinventing yourself in this ever-changing world. Audiences enjoy her interactive presentation style, as they leave the feeling motivated to take action after gaining a better understanding of how they want to show up in the world. As a recent attendee wrote:
“Jen communicates a powerful life affirming message with equal parts humor and humility. I left feeling inspired and empowered.”
Jen currently resides in San Diego, California with her rescue dog, Sadie Rose. You’ll frequently see Jen and Sadie either on the beach or on the trails of Mt. Laguna. Jen also enjoys teaching ballroom and Latin dancing, performing musical improv, and supervising rubber chicken launches during team-building events!
