ABOUT JEN

Born and raised in the Midwest, Jen had to choose between staring at corn or reading books. Corn husks just didn't have the appeal of the Baby-Sitters Club, and so a bookworm was born. Reading later turned into writing and in 2011, Jen published her first novel with Camel Press. After releasing four books in the mystery genre, Jen finally gave in to the literary demands of her inner teenager with her YA debut, FIFTEEN (The Dreamwalker Diaries). 

Jen is a member of the National Writers Union. As an author, she has been featured in Penthouse Magazine, Write the World, Mystery Scene Magazine, and more. 


Jen is a litigation paralegal by day and a character-centric writer by night. When she’s not writing legal briefs or a new novel, Jen can be found adventuring with her family, strolling with her husband, or having coffee with her friends. She believes that the best ideas often brew over a good cup of coffee! 

With a knack for storytelling, Jen finds inspiration in everyday life—especially when it comes to navigating the world of toxic people. Her latest work dives into this theme and showcases the importance of boundaries, mental health, and reclaiming your power from real-life monsters. 

Join Jen as she weaves together humor, heart, and a sprinkle of sass, inviting readers to embrace truth and let the trash take itself out.
