About Jennifer
I started working as a seasonal employee at Chautauqua in 1986. I became a full-time employee in December 1993, working for Vice President of Operations Charlie Heinz and General Manager of the Athenaeum Tom Ferri. My work location was the Athenaeum Hotel. Within a year, my title changed to dining room manager. After being there for nine years, Mr. Heinz asked me to be his assistant. I have been here in the Colonnade since October 2002.
In 2018 I took on the task of managing the waterfront and docks in addition to my administrative duties.
Why did you choose to work at Chautauqua? What do you like about working at Chautauqua?
I learned about Chautauqua though a family member when I was a teenager. I began working summers and loved the environment so much that I continued working summers until I was asked to become a year-round employee.
Current and Former Volunteer or Board Roles
I volunteer for the Chautauqua Lake Childcare Center. I have been on its board since 2012 and was board president for nine years. I was also the Board President for the Chautauqua Lake PTO from 2009–2018.
Personal Interests
Events of activities my children are involved in, walking and theater. I have four children and have always lived in the area.
