A 4th generation Dallasite, Jennifer has a degree in Hospitality Administration and holds two professional certifications in Christian education from Perkins School of Theology. Using her love of event planning and education, Jennifer has been the Director of Children’s Ministry at Lake Highlands United Methodist Church for 10 years. Her favorite part of being in ministry is showing and sharing the love of serving others to her many kids throughout the Lake Highlands community.

Following the example of service set by her mother and grandmother, joining the Junior League of Dallas was an organization she always knew she wanted to be a part of. Starting her 16th active year, Jennifer has had the privilege of serving as Community Outreach Chair, Research and Planning Chair and this year as the Co-Auction Chair. Many of her favorite placements have been serving on the underwriting committee several times, on Research and Development and as a placement advisor. Jennifer is a 2023 graduate of T. Boone Pickens Leadership Institute.

Outside of the Junior League of Dallas, Jennifer serves Feed Lake Highlands, a non-profit organization that strives to feed the mind, body, and spirit. Sending kids to summer camp is the greatest part of serving alongside FLH.

Through BoardBuild I hope to gain new skills allowing me to serve other organizations through effective collaboration and leadership.
