Jen’s mission is to lead her team in building relationships with manufacturers and developing solutions that support business growth.

Coming from a family whose father worked in automotive manufacturing for his whole career, she is proud to support U.S. manufacturing and the role it plays in job creation for millions of Americans just like him.
