Jennifer was born in Seattle, and her career began on a fishing boat in Alaska. She developed an interest in PNW history, economics, and politics that took her back to Evergreen State College to finish her degree in Environmental Studies. Today her passion is in bringing an abundance of wisdom, information, and humor to one of life’s most difficult questions: How do you plan for a peaceful and meaningful death? She brings to this important process, seven years of experience as a Certified Heartwork facilitator for End-of-Life Planning, and more than twenty years as an educator and trainer for the Washington State Department of Health.

Her End-of-Life Planning groups and individual sessions are guided by a deep appreciation for cultural and spiritual diversity and the power of sharing personal stories and truths. Her experience during her father’s end of life instilled in her a calling to share with others the ability to face their own and loved ones’ deaths with intention and tools. Jennifer is honored to help others live more joyfully in the present, by planning for a meaningful end to life. She shares everything needed for end-of-life planning – from curated stories and poetry, to current healthcare documents and death with dignity knowledge – in private, personal, and uplifting settings.

She’s available for presentations, workshops, and individual mentoring. She also facilitates an hour-long grief workshop.
