About Jenny

With a professional career spanning over 30 years, Jenny has worked in areas as diverse as municipal finance, government, asset management, equine non-profit development, and equestrian sports.  She provides business consulting services as well as financial literacy training in niche markets such as the equestrian industry. Her roles in finance and marketing have led her to develop a high level of technical expertise in financial analysis, budget and capital planning, strategic new business development, debt and capital structures, and more recently, financial literacy coaching, all of which help Jenny tailor personalized solutions for clients.

Jenny served as financial advisor or underwriter on over $1 billion in municipal bond transactions between 1989 and 2007.  She has held senior leadership roles in government, as Chairman of the Darien Housing Authority from 2007 to 2011 and as a member of the Town of Darien’s RTM Finance and Budget Committee since 2019, where she actively participates in the $160mm+ budget approval process. From 2010 to 2013, Jenny served as President, and then Development Director, of New Canaan Mounted Troop, a 501(c)(3) equine non-profit organization, where she led the fundraising and strategic planning efforts to launch “Super Troopers”, a therapeutic riding and horsemanship program for the special needs and underserved communities. From 2017 to 2020, Jenny worked as a sales and client services professional servicing institutional investors and high net worth individuals for DGHM, LLC, an equity value boutique. In 2020, Jenny began providing financial literacy workshops to non-profit organizations who serve underserved communities and now provides one on one financial coaching to those seeking individual financial freedom.  In recognition of her civic duty and community service, she received the Women of Distinction Award from the YWCA of Darien and Norwalk in 2014.
