Presenter Bio: Jen is a builder. Prior to starting Align, she was a leader on the founding team of a first-of-its-kind start-up university. There she developed and launched new programs and recruited the college’s very first customers, with little more than a grand vision to show first customers. Over the years, she worked closely with business leaders through workforce initiatives and applied technical centers. She’s experienced the challenge of launching new services in a highly competitive, mature market. Later, she led the Commonwealth of PA’s Office of Transformation & Innovation, where she worked closely with the senior-most executives to gain support for and implement innovative new government initiatives. Colleagues and clients appreciate Jen’s ability to think creatively and strategically while staying focused and persistent on ‘getting it done.’ Jen teaches a graduate course and provides training in entrepreneurship, innovation, and leadership.
