She takes pride in her public school education, having attended public/state schools from kindergarten through grad school.

Jennifer is proud to be the inaugural team member of the Turnberg & Swallow Team. Her high standards for professionalism, integrity, excellence, and ambitious goal-setting and achievement set her apart from other newer agents.

She is an active member of the Scantic Valley YMCA, and was a corporate sponsor of the Common Grounds Fall Vendor Fair and the 1st Annual Michael Ames Memorial Golf Tournament. Jennifer has spearheaded many successful fundraising ventures for local fire and police departments, as well as the Wounded Warrior Project. Jennifer is also an official for high school and college track & field with the Western Massachusetts Track & Field Officials Association.

Jennifer holds a B.A. in History from Westfield State University, and a M.Ed from the University of Massachusetts Lowell. She is a homeowner in Springfield and enjoys running in her neighborhood and visiting her local library.
