Jennifer Barker
Vice President, Monmouth County Chapter

Jen focuses on creating and nurturing holistic digital marketing, design and web development strategies for companies across numerous verticals to increase their digital footprint. Through assessment of current strategy, pain points, and goals, she tailors custom solutions to suit their needs. In addition to helping clients and agency partners, Jen is currently the Director of Digital Strategy at RIZCO and works very closely with marketing, design and development teams.

Jen finds the most fulfillment inspiring and empowering others in her industry by educating and sharing her knowledge about current and future digital trends and tactics via speaking engagements, presentations, participating on technology panels, and teaching workshops at universities, industry events, meetups, and conferences.

Jen has worked for digital agencies in two major cities over the last 16 years, but 5 years ago happily put her roots down at the Jersey Shore. Born and raised north of the Jersey great divide, aka the Driscoll Bridge, the struggle to defend North Jersey is an ongoing battle. #TaylorHam

Jen holds a BFA in multimedia design from the University of the Arts in Philadelphia, PA. and entered the tech world in the late 90’s. She started her career just as technology was about to explode, so was lucky enough to have the chance to experience the monumental shift from traditional to digital marketing.

Jen attributes her success in the tech industry to a combination of professional mentorship, community involvement and life experience and feels that some of her best career lessons did not come from a classroom or job, but from living in cities engulfed with creativity, art, culture, and surrounding herself with people that challenge and inspire me on a daily basis.
