With a rock-solid foundation, Jen’s devotion to learning and strong belief in growth continues. She believes that in order to be a good teacher you must be a great student, and a great student she is.

However, the one super power she doesn’t have is a “super memory” and many of the educational trainings in the early years (you know, before cell phones, the Internet and Facebook) have been wiped clear of her memory, no doubt by an evil villain trying to take over the world! What remains are just few of the incredible opportunities she has had over the years, with several more trainings and certifications already lined-up for the year.
