CEO, JenniferDent Events
Listen to a radio interview with Dwight Miller from Black Genius Network on how JenniferDent Events came to be.
Laid off from her corporate job right before the holidays in 2007, Jennifer made the decision to stop interviewing for another corporate gig and follow her dream to become an entrepreneur. Initially, she found success with a network marketing company, Isagenix (www.jenniferdent.isagenix.com). Her work as a Nutritional Cleansing Coach was much more rewarding and working closely with people across the globe in a team environment was much more fulfilling than working as a corporate employee.
As an entrepreneur, Jennifer realized there are many ways to generate income so she decided to indulge in her favorite past time, event planning. Her first event, Would You Marry You? quickly sold out and she realized that she may be on to something big. Thus JenniferDent Events was created. The goal of JenniferDent Events is to offer informative and interactive events that add value to the lives of her target audience.
Over the years, Jennifer learned the importance of generating multiple streams of income. In addition to her successful Isagenix business, and her event planning company, she also owns investment properties in the Philadelphia area.
Her professional success and accomplishments has not hindered this entrepreneur from serving. She lives by the biblical quote, “To whom much is given, much is required.” She is extremely active in her community and church, First African Baptist Church in Sharon Hill, PA. In church, she sings on the choir and serves as a ministry leader of a group for high school girls entitled G.U.E.S.S. (Girls Understanding Education Success and Society).
In the community, she is the founder of the Philadelphia Minority Professionals GIVE BACK Meetup organization (www.meetup.com/giveback). This group was established in April 2008 with the purpose of bringing together professionals in the Philadelphia area who are committed to empowering the community by giving back to charitable causes. The group membership continues to grow daily and is close to 300 members strong.
Jennifer attended Mount Saint Joseph Academy in Flourtown, PA. From “The Mount”, she attended Hampton University in Hampton, VA where she graduated with a B.A. in Mass Media Communications. Upon graduation, she received the prestigious CITED fellowship where she was able to attend Indiana University in Bloomington, IN. She graduated with a M.S. in Instructional Systems Technology. This degree led her directly to the corporate world where she worked as a management consultant for over 9 years with Ernst & Young LLP and Accenture (formally Anderson Consulting).
Jennifer is looking forward to the future where she has plans to empower and encourage people worldwide through JenniferDent Events.
