Jennifer is currently principal of Kenner Collegiate and Vocational Institute in Peterborough. She attended Wilfrid Laurier University where she played varsity tennis, was president of the Women’s Athletic Association, and was recognized as the “woman contributing most to athletics”. Jen began her teaching career in Calgary before returning to Ontario, where she has taught at several schools over the years and coached a variety of sports including cross country running, basketball, and volleyball. As a high school athlete, her goal was always to get to OFSAA championships, and this is something her son and daughter both wanted to achieve as well. In addition to her busy life as a principal and OFSAA president, Jen also likes to play tennis, ski, hike, kayak and sail.
