Bio
Stefan Anderson
Jenny is one of the brightest stars in the galaxy of educational leadership. I have been fortunate to have known Jenny for the past eighteen years as a colleague collaborating for the improvement of green and healthy schools. In the early days the work focused on the Midwest region, but through Jenny's hard work and contributions, the work expanded into a national movement. Her contributions were formally recognized when she was asked to step up and lead the Green School's National Network. Part of Jenny's genius is her ability to incorporate humor and music effectively in support of her work. When looking for a colleague, collaborator, or just a good friend, you would be blessed if you found Jennifer Seydel.
