She's also an experienced copywriter, having written content for both Action for Children and Oxfam's websites.
Jenna works with a variety of clients, ranging from small start-up charities to large corporate organisations who want to change the world.

In addition to her role at Finding Starfish, Jenna is also an Associate Consultant for Wootton George Consulting, Home-Start UK and sits on a Regional Grants Award panel for Comic Relief.
Jenna first came across the Starfish Story in an art gallery, at the very beginning of her career. She promptly bought eight prints - (for all her office colleagues!) - and a print still remains in pride of place in Jenna’s office today.
