IMDbProStarmeterSee rank
Born and raised within an E train ride of Manhattan, Jennifer fell in love with television at an early age. As a child her favorite hobby was highlighting her viewing choices in each week's TV Guide. So it was inevitable she would make television her life's work.

Jennifer has showrun hundreds of hours of tv in almost every genre possible, both in studio and field based. Her checkered career includes scripted, unscripted, talk, game, hidden camera, and formats. As Co-Executive Producer of The Man Show with Jimmy Kimmel and Adam Carolla, she held down her little island of estrogen surrounded by farting monkeys, girls on trampolines and beer. The Yin to that Yang had her helming three seasons of Something Borrowed, Something New and creating the formatted pilot for Bride By Design with Trium for TLC. She also developed and launched The IMDb Show, right here on IMDb.

Jennifer gets around and has produced for Comedy Central, MTV, Spike, TruTV, WEtv, Vh1, DisneyJr, OWN, Style, Oxygen, IMDb among others. She is known for being the hands on EP. She takes her projects from initial development through editing and knows all the good take out places for those 2am edit bay dinners.
