After crushing the car business in such a male-dominated industry, Jennifer Hernandez knew there was more for her. This led her to the mortgage industry. Buying a half-million-dollar home at twenty-five was the silver lining, but God had a different light to show her. The 2009 crash took everything Jennifer worked so hard for—her home, multiple investment properties, as well as her marriage. But giving up was never an option for her.

While parenting four children and working relentlessly to stay afloat, Jennifer found her true calling—helping others. This revaluation allowed her to go back into the mortgage industry with a different mindset. Now, Jennifer is a top-producing loan officer as well as managing her own branch at the second-largest non-deposit mortgage company in the country. She continues to thrive in this new light as a leader to her team, as well as all the non-profit organizations she works with to teach teens entrepreneurship through mentorship.
