Hello! I'm Jenny. I'm a learning designer, career advisor, and humanist. I want to help people design a meaningful life that will allow them to flourish. I partner with organizations looking to create an enriching experience for their employees or constituents. We work together to create educational programs that can empower people to make the world a better place, achieve ambitious goals, and find more fulfillment in their work. I have enjoyed working with university departments, government ministries, and international aid organizations on a variety of programs, from degrees to leadership retreats.

​

I serve as Associate Director of Executive Education at the Fletcher School at Tufts University, where I design educational programs for various partners, including government ministries and multilateral organizations, covering topics from climate finance to negotiation and conflict management. Previously at the Georgia Institute of Technology, I created and oversaw the Graduate Program at the School of Modern Languages, in collaboration with the Atlanta Global Studies Center (Title IV), served as a career coach for humanities students, and taught courses in German Studies, career development, community management, and leadership.

​

My teaching experience and background in literature and philosophy continue to inform my work. I hold a Ph.D. in German Studies from Stanford University, where my research focused on the history of happiness in literature, philosophy, clinical psychology, and education. I have published and offered trainings on the innovation of graduate education, online learning, career education, curriculum design, and interdisciplinary collaboration, most recently Graduate Education for a Thriving Humanities Ecosystem, a national framework for education innovation, published by the Modern Language Association.
