Meet Jennifer

Hello! I share more about my background here. But to make things simple, I think one of my greatest strengths is my willingness to try new things. I’ve learned so much from putting myself out there and being willing to do things a bit (or very) differently.

It is an incredible honor to get to serve others by helping them do the same for themselves.

I look forward to meeting you and learning from you, too!
