Hi, I’m Jenna.
a project and operations leader who turns big visions into real results. I cut through complexity, rally people around what matters, and make sure projects don’t just start strong — they finish with impact. Along the way, I bring clarity, energy, and a knack for solving problems with equal parts structure and collaboration.
What I Do
I help organizations bring clarity and structure to complex projects, blending project management discipline with a people-first approach that strengthens collaboration, efficiency, and impact.
-
Creating structures and systems that set the foundation for growth.
-
Translating strategy into initiatives that engage stakeholders and deliver measurable results.

My Approach
People First
I center the experience, not just the plan. When teams feel heard and supported, momentum stays high, resistance stays low, and results come faster.
Clarity + Structure
Ambiguity is where I thrive. I create simple frameworks and crisp communications that cut through the noise, keep decisions moving, and make smart use of time and resources.
Results that Scale
Start strong and refine fast. With tight feedback loops and thoughtful trade-offs, I deliver measurable outcomes and build systems that keep working long after the project ends.
