MEET JENNY
the face behind the desk
I’M JENNY, OWNER & CREATOR OF SIMPLE DESK, A MULTI-FACETED AND HIGHLY SPECIALIZED BUSINESS SUPPORT COMPANY.
I created Simple Desk after years of seeing my fellow entrepreneurs struggle with the administrative and marketing side of their business as well as juggling their never-ending to-do list, day to day family responsibilities, a social life and time for themselves. Being a single mom myself, working full time days, working a second job at night as well as many social and household commitments, I could understand how they felt.
Having spent most of my life in accounting, administration and customer service, I knew I had the skills and expertise to help. I wanted to find a way to make their life easier and more efficient so they could get back to why they started the business in the first place. Passion, drive and success are all goals I strive to help my clients achieve. I take great joy in helping others succeed. When it comes to my clients, their success is my business.
When I am not at my desk, you can usually find me spending quality time with my daughter, wandering in the woods with one or all of my lady tribe, volunteering for worthy causes, driving around practicing for my new career in country music, or fuelling my 4 cup a day coffee habit.
