In her spare time aside from cyber security mentorship and volunteering, Jen gets in to all kinds of things. She's a World Record powerlifter and former competitive ballroom dancer who loves reading and the outdoors. She's traded in her Ducati for a kayak and still enjoys Figment the Imagination Dragon. She can usually be lured anywhere with promises of rye whisky.
