About Me

Some of my earliest firm memories are of pulling out an antique typewriter in my parents’ basement to write a Nancy Drew novel. I didn’t finish it, but I knew, even at age 7, that I wanted to be a writer.

Fast forward 30 years, and I am one. I have a lifetime of hobby-writing, but I also have, professionally, 7 years of copywriting, 5 years of essay writing, 4 years of scriptwriting, 3 years of creative commentary, and 2 years of departmental leadership experience. I specialize in non-profit communications, narrative fiction, and comedy.

I have co-written for the popular YouTube series Common Sense Soapbox, I still co-write for Out of Frame, and I co-host the Out of Frame: Behind the Scenes podcast.

My original writing can be found at FEE.org and Deseret News. I’ve been translated into at least 6 different languages. I’ve been republished in Newsweek, PanAm Post, Epoch Times, and SCENES. I’ve also been cited by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Vox, and The Guardian.

“Jen is (how do the kids say?) dope. She is one of the most creative individuals that I have met. Jen’s writing is fun and full of energy. She creates sentences that not only convey her meaning but also give the right feel and tone to her work.

She is a wordsmith.”
