Jenni Jarvinen’s Specialties:

I know the basic tools in the project management toolbox, but yet consider myself to be 'producer-in-training'. Being an 'people person' from the heart, working with various people and managing team members to achive a common goal comes naturally to me, which I consider a great plus. I'm iniative, detail-oriented problem solver with a burning desire to contribute to the project I'm working with. I possess excellent written and spoken skills and I'm able to document every aspect of my work.
