With a decade as a CRNA and 14 years in nursing, Jenny is driven by a passion to empower others through education and mentorship. From a young age, academic hurdles led me to doubt myself. Without the guiding hand of her mentors, Jenny would not have realized my dreams. CRNA wasn’t just a career choice—it was a calling.
