Jen is a native New Yorker currently living in Los Angeles. She studied Social Philosophy and Business at Villanova University before moving to New Orleans in 2009. It was there that she fell in love with the art and people of the historic French Quarter and first began working with photographers, artists, fashion designers, and models on developing their talents into businesses and careers.
Quickly snowballing opportunities in fashion PR, first in New Orleans and then in New York City, she began running Scouting and Development at Nous Model Management, one of the top boutique modeling agencies in Los Angeles, where she developed some of the most talented models and photographers in the country.
Over the following several years Jen scouted talent for, produced, coordinated and curated images from over 1,000 photoshoots and editorials with top agency represented talent. Images from shoots she's worked on have been published in Marie Claire, Cosmopolitan, Darling Magazine, Nylon Mexico, Oyster, Ladygunn, Cake, Sicky, Creem, Galore, Arcadia and more. She has worked on brand collaborations and promotions with millennial-popular brands like Flynn Skye, Beyond Yoga and American Eagle.
In 2016 she began consulting under the business name Charm Development and has continued to help manage and develop photographers, musicians, models and artists of all genres on a private, case-by-case basis.
