on leadership…
“Jen is hands down the most supportive leader I've learned from in my career. She's a leader who will stretch you, and support you. Not one to micromanage her team, she demands diligence and self-reliance in your work. She's going to ask you to digest high-level concepts and translate those concepts into a plan and deliver on it. This approach ensures you build your own deep understanding and framework. She's compassionate and cares about you as a person.”
— Chris Spott, Product Manager, LRN
“Jen is a spectacular leader. Her passion and expertise for eLearning is evident in the way she communicates, problem-solves, and asks questions. She leads with compassion, energy, and focus on company goals, while keeping our team aligned to our core values. Her ability to listen to the customer and create a solution that fit their learning needs was highly impactful; each conversation with a customer was an opportunity to learn something new that we could implement in future projects. Jen makes every interaction a moment of professional development, giving team members the autonomy, but direction, to contribute in a meaningful way.”
— Dana Vazquez, Ethics and Learning Strategy Associate, LRN

“As a learning specialist, I was impressed with Jennifer's desire to apply her leadership skills to learning. She recognized learning as an art and science unto itself, and continually worked to strengthen her knowledge and abilities in this area. As a result, she gained the respect of her colleagues and the many nurse educators she directed. Due to Jennifer’s leadership and commitment to quality in learning, I expect that she will have a major impact in developing learning that will meet the needs of the future."

on collaboration…
“I have had the pleasure of working with Jen at LRN as an independent contractor, and colleague at Ithaka/JSTOR where she led the product marketing team in building a successful, and profitable online subscription model research database for academic professionals. She is extremely knowledgeable of eLearning, instructional, and human-centered design thinking. Jen is as professional as she is personable, a truly inspiring and passionate leader.”

“Jen is one of my favorite people to work with because she’s able to provide context and share her vision in a way that makes it seem like she speaks multiple languages. We’ve collaborated on a range of projects together and she always brings a level of insight and focus that I find engaging and super helpful. She has a keen sensibility for process, structure and detail, as well as an extra-wide aperture when it comes to objectives and overall mission. I feel like I always learn something from her, and I love her insatiable hunger for learning itself.”
