Biography
Jenna is the outgoing Managing Editor of DogTime.com and CatTime.com, as well as the proud helicopter dog mom of her rescue pups Washington and Goldie Hawn. She grew up in rural North Carolina on a family farm, which is where her love of animals became apparent as she quite literally endeavored to save every abandoned fur baby within the farm's proximity. While in college, Jenna ran for a seat on the local Soil and Water Conservation District Board of Supervisors. In 2010, at the age of 21, she made history in the state — becoming the youngest woman ever elected to public office. She was re-elected to that Wake County office in 2014, 2018, and again in 2022. In 2020, she was the statewide Democratic nominee for North Carolina Commissioner of Agriculture. While her campaign fell short, her voice became an important one in advocating for environmental sustainability in farming, climate change, animal rights, and LGBTQ+ issues. Jenna has also worked as a book editor, ghostwriter, and speech writer for various political personalities across the country. She is passionate about various topics—even appearing on PBS NewsHour, as well as in NBC News, The Nation, The Advocate, Yahoo News, and Newsweek.
