Profile:

Jenny spent her Fellowship year at the National Partnershp for Women and Families (NPWF) , where she researched and evaluated judicial nominees to the appellate courts, paying particular attention to the nominees’ records on women’s rights issues.  Jenny also represented NPWF at coalition meetings regarding judicial nominees.  She assisted the Workplace Fairness group in its monitoring efforts of legislation introduced in this Congress that impacts civil rights.  In that regard, Jenny researched the bankruptcy amendments that were approved in March 2004, as well as the Consent Decree Fairness Act.  Jenny was quoted in the March 29 2005 issue of Daily Kent Stater on workplace fairness issues concerning equal pay for women.

Jenny worked for Goldberg, Mechanic, Stewart & Gibson in Portland, Oregon until the firm's closing, at which point she joined the Bay Area labor and employment law firm of Leonard Carder, specializing in representing local and international labor unions and employee benefit plans, as well as representing employees in class actions, individual employee rights cases and law reform litigation. On August 29, 2008, she joined Local 1245 of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers as its staff attorney.  The labor union is headquartered in the San Francisco bay area, and it primarily represents workers employed at utility companies in Central and Northern California and Northern Nevada.
