About Jen

I live in Ithaca, NY and I am the Center Director for the Kaplan Test Prep Center. I work with high school and college students who are prepping for the SAT's and graduate exams. I am recovering from knee surgery #3 but I love to dance, hike, and exercise on a regular basis. I enjoy many crafts..everything from stamping and chocolate making to pottery painting and making our save the dates:) I am a big animal lover. I especially enjoy taking tons of pictures of my cat. My pride and joy is Madeline the cutest cat in the world.

Tom and I met at a party in October of 1998. A girl in my graduate program lived with some girls in his grad program. I almost left the party but this cute guy caught my eye and we ended up meeting and talking for many hours. The night ended with Tom asking for my e-mail (that's what Cornell guys are like) and I asked for his phone #. I was lucky enough to receive an e-mail the next day with an invitation to dinner and a movie. Lucky for him I said yes!
