A self-proclaimed B2B sales success story, Jenny grew up in generational poverty and faced the difficult decision to delay a college education due to familial obligations.

Her personal and professional passions include DEI and advocating for women in the field of tech, in line with her mantra of “Do the most good; make the most impact.” On top of her successful sales career, Jenny decided to return to her academic path to earn a college degree, enrolling at Boise State. In 2021, while at Boise State, her response to an assignment led to founding Maggie, an organization that trains women for tech sales while offering mentorship, interview preparation, and placement assistance that is free to all students, unlike most other bootcamps. Maggie is the only woman-focused and woman-founded SaaS sales bootcamp available.

When not advocating for women in tech, you can find Jenny adventuring all over the US while traveling full-time with her husband and three children in their fifth wheel. When not traveling, she calls Middle Tennessee home while maintaining deep roots in Boise, Idaho.
