Experience
At age 10, Jenna was bitten by the travel bug on a trip to Washington, D.C., with her grandmother. She has been writing professionally for just under two decades now and has contributed chapters to 14 books. She's traveled the world for many years and always makes a beeline for whatever the oldest site in the area is. She's spent so much time on planes and in hotels that she ended up laminated her packing list.
Education
Jenna graduated with an acting B.F.A. from Syracuse University.
