Outdoor Diva Jennifer Manner
Unlike so many other outdoor divas, my wife transformed much later in life on a trip to Lake Tahoe and the Grand Canyon where her love the outside blossomed. Over 15 years later, Jennifer an attorney and senior executive at a major telecommunications company, an adjunct professor of law at two national law schools, a published author with two books and numerous scholarly articles, a woman who holds numerous board positions on educational and other institutions, still cherishes her time outdoors above all her other pursuits.
Unlike other women in Washington, D.C., Jennifer takes advantage more than just the political climate; to the contrary, she spends a substantial part of every day biking, swimming, trail running, kayaking and rowing, among other outdoor activities. Non-work days often include rock climbing, surfing, skiing or any other activity we can find to do. In all of these activities, Mountain Hardwear gear is an integral part of her dress and our overall gear (including our tent, which Jennifer raves about every night we spend in it!)
Further, Jennifer also serves as an inspiration to others. Whether it is creating running clubs for others whom she works with to inspire runners of all speeds, forming racing teams with her colleagues, or cleaning area parks to ensure others can also enjoy them, Jennifer's enthusiasm shines through and her love for Mountain Hardwear Gear which she urges others to also use as a quality product, which also makes Jennifer feel more like the outdoor diva she is.
