"When I think about the most valuable collaborators I’ve worked with, Jenny is at the top of the list. As I built new programs and developed grants on the Goodwill Foundation team, she brought clarity, strategy, and creative content that elevated our work. With her high-level understanding of activities across the organization, Jenny was my go-to when I needed thoughtful content, fresh perspective, or a quick turnaround. Together we launched initiatives like the corporate volunteer program, Lilly Global Day of Service, and Goodwill: UNBOXED. Jenny’s contributions always made the work smarter and more impactful. Best of all, when I needed a boost, she was always ready with a thoughtful question, a calm presence, or one of my signature high fives."

"I've absolutely loved working with Jenny. Whether we were collaborating on a large event, video series, awareness campaigns or collection of heartfelt stories of impact — Jenny was a strong partner. No worries on if she would uphold her portion of the work, no, above and beyond is what can be expected. Her depth of understanding of a subject allowed her to ask pointed questions to truly bring forth the best possible result. She won’t shy away from a challenge and will likely blow you away with her mastery of it."

"Jenny worked with my son in her role at Goodwill. She nominated him for 2 awards and he won both. She assisted in the award process from beginning to receipt including travel to Canada for the entire family to receive one of the awards. Jenny is thorough, kind, hardworking, extremely organized, and exceptional in all that she does. If she doesn't know the answer or can't help, she will help you find someone that does or can. She will be an invaluable asset to whoever is fortunate enough to get her."
