After considering a career in a medical field, she chose a different path that eventually led her to develop a pain management doctor’s office new personal injury practice. After getting that practice up and running, she made the move to Coast Law Group’s Personal Injury Team as a Case Manager where she enjoys helping each client with a personal touch. She literally goes the extra mile for our clients; just ask her!

Jen earned her bachelor’s degree in Environmental Design from Syracuse University graduating cum laude while working for the Syracuse law School Dean of Alumni Relations.
