TESTIMONIALS
Jenny is a radical, caring, thoughtful producer - centering justice and liberation in all her work. This is not only apparent through the projects she produces and collaborations she engages with, but felt through the way she engages in all interactions. There isn't a moment in working with Jenny that her collaborators and clients don't feel a sense of care, presence as well as profound commitment and dedication to her craft and collaborators. She also always goes above and beyond to bring vision into manifestation, moving between the bird's eye view and the smallest details of the event or production with ease and expertise.”

“Whenever I'm creating something impossible and new, Jenny is among the very first people I call. She's been an asset to me on several big projects, providing arts production, outreach support, and operations glue with remarkable skill and grace. If you need someone 5-star, look no further.”
