Currently the Chief Operating Officer at Joy, Inc. in Nigeria, Jennifer plays a key role in shaping one of Africa’s most innovative human-centered companies. Her work goes beyond operations—she’s a trusted leader who has designed and led high-impact programs that empower creatives, streamline systems, and deliver measurable results.
Before joining Joy, Inc., Jennifer led curriculum development and training at RAS Studios, where she mentored up-and-coming filmmakers across 20 U.S. states.
