Boston, MA (PRWEB) October 20, 2016 -- “While it’s great to be recognized,” says Jennie, “it’s vital we do not lose sight of why we are recognized in the first place. We each have a responsibility to help others. More importantly we have the ability to do so. I strive to ensure that this is apparent in everything I do, both personally and professionally. It’s only fitting we help others by donating our time, energy and abilities.”
"This is a great acknowledgement for Jennie and others like her,” said Cantella Chief Executive Officer Jay Lanstein. “Women continue to make well deserved strides in the financial services industry which can be a great place to build a career. Jennie and others like her are terrific examples of this.”

Similarly, Jennie has helped institute family-friendly policies at Cantella, making it easier for all employees to balance the demands of family and career.
“As a mother of three children with a demanding yet thriving career I’m living my American Dream and want to help others achieve theirs,” says Jennie.
