Born and raised in Santa Cruz, California, Jennifer embraced her youthful independence riding her bike all over town. She built her first bike stunt around the corner from her house at Westlake Pond as
the boys watched. When she was satisfied with her construction, she launched off into the pond on her green Murray Wildcat. Like a true entrepreneur, she charged the boys to take flight. Her passion for
being airborne had not worn-off when she left for San Jose State under a basketball scholarship to study Aeronautical Engineering.
However, she did switch gears and graduated with a degree in Advertising and Communications. Down the road from Silicon Valley, she found her roots again in Santa Cruz working for Bell Helmets as a
Product Marketing Manager. Now she resides in Hailey, Idaho where she teamed up with Mark Baumgardner to direct the development of Bike Ranch and take her youthful passion for riding to a new level and build more stunts for all to enjoy!
