BOARD MEMBER: ACTIVE, 2023-2025: Jennifer Bensi

Jen is a boomerang Clevelander. She graduated from Ohio University, lived in Lakewood, then moved to Indianapolis for 6 years before coming home. While in Indianapolis she built a non-profit networking organization that raised over $10,000 for refugees in 2016. She has also volunteered with the Cleveland 20/30 Club, Engage Cleveland, and board of elections. Professionally, Jen works with Government and Education entities, consulting on process improvement, and data collection and analytics with technology. She joined JLC in 2020 in the midst of COVID after moving back in 2019 and has been on the Community council as a member and VP for the past two years. She is a lover of all things travel, hiking and outdoor adventures, reading, and fitness (okay maybe not all fitness). Jen now lives in Lakewood with her husband Patrick, cat Tino, and new puppy, Darla.
