Jennifer brings over nine years of experience at AFR, having held a variety of roles across the organization. She started her journey in 2016 as a Kitchen & Linen Driver and quickly rose through the ranks—serving as Housewares Manager, then Kitchen & Linen Manager, and eventually stepping into the role of Residential Warehouse Manager. Her leadership shone particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic, when she successfully managed both her Kitchen & Linen responsibilities and the asset management for the Boston warehouses.

Prior to joining AFR, Jennifer built her management foundation in retail, where she worked her way up from Sales Associate to Operations Manager. It was a close friend who introduced her to AFR and encouraged her to make the switch—and she’s never looked back.

Jennifer is known for her compassion, communication skills, and energetic presence.
