Jen Shultz\\u2019 career journey started in the music and entertainment industries before she pivoted to education. She returned to school herself, earned her master\\u2019s degree in education, and landed a job at an NYC charter school.

Shultz prioritized her health, quit her stable teaching job, and founded her first entrepreneurial venture: a tutoring business called Teacher on the Go, where she helped students as a private tutor. After the first one turned into several, she recognized that she was capable of creating a business that scaled. \\u2705
