After growing up in Virginia Beach, Jenny was excited to join “The Tribe” at William & Mary. At William & Mary she participated in the Cambridge Program (still thinking that Cambridge is the inspiration for Hogwarts) and was also a member of Alpha Phi Omega service fraternity, the Mermettes, and student government.
