Jenna was born and raised in the Bay Area, but moved to Las Vegas in 2016 and has resided there ever since with her partner Matt. She received her undergraduate degree in Comparative Literature with a minor in Mathematics at Mills College. Jenna began her nonprofit career with an organization in San Francisco as a payroll clerk during the recession. Seeing the work and its impact on their clients - people with mental health disabilities getting back into the workforce - inspired her to continue in the nonprofit realm. Service work is a calling and she is still friends with people she worked with at that original organization.

Jon loves to spend time with his parents, friends and nature as well as working out.
