Jennifer is the MindSports Ambassador at PokerStars and loves to show how games like poker and chess can help anyone make better decisions.  In her podcast, the GRID, she interviews top poker players and personalities about memorable hands. The show is a game within a game, as Jen fills out the entire 169 grid of possible poker hands, with no repeats. Check out an article describing the concept, and subscribe on Apple podcasts or your favorite pod channel.
Jennifer’s live poker feats include winning the Open Face Poker Championship in Prague, and advancing to the finals of the Shark Cage. She also had a great year at the tables when she was pregnant, including a deep WSOP Main Event run, described memorably on the PokerStars Blog.  Jen organized events to intertwine her two favorite games, including a hybrid chess poker event at the IOM Chess International and the #MYChessPokerGame challenge, a contest that awarded a $30,000 package to the most creative game that merged chess and chance.
Jennifer created her own “Roulette Chess” with artist and curator Larry List and a poker chip chess set with the BARGE group. Jen was the first female coach at Run It Once, where she made poker strategy videos from 2014-2018.
