Jenn Taylor
Information Systems and Process Design
Pronouns: she/her/hers
Jenn has worked directly with more than 100 nonprofits and educational organizations to help them implement new or transform existing digital systems, adjust processes accordingly, and problem-solve throughout implementation to ensure successful adoption. Through this work she has become dedicated to correcting the sector-wide inefficiencies that are a drain on nonprofit time and resources.
Jenn's areas of expertise are in the design and management of information systems. She has spent the better part of two decades answering questions related to how organizations create, understand, maintain, and trust the information they rely on. She works extensively in designing methods for reducing manual data entry within and between organizations as well as establishing patterns for trusted and trustworthy data. Her current focus is humanizing digital systems in the social sector by making them transparent, equitable, effective, and trusted.
Jenn holds an MBA in Nonprofit Management from the Heller School, Brandeis and a Bachelor of Science from the University of Alabama. She is the founder of Deep Why, wrote the first few versions of RollCall, and is a co-founder and CEO of Human Centered Apps. She is also a proud alum of TEDxSavannah, mentor for small business owners, author of an ebook about the Data Maturity Model for Nonprofits, and is a frequent speaker, teacher, and trainer on the operational aspects of technology.
At Deep Why, Jenn is the chief chaos muppet and is congenitally incapable of being anywhere on time, ever.
