Meet Jenny
Growing up, Jenny's mom was a librarian and her dad, a Navy veteran worked his way through school as a night janitor at her elementary school. She saw how much they sacrificed for a better life for her and her brother. After graduating college, Jenny went to work defending our environment, health care choices for pregnant Coloradans, and working families. She's honored to continue that work on behalf of the residents of Northglenn and Thornton as a Colorado State Representative.
