Jeanette is originally from southern California but has called Tacoma home for the past 20 years. Before Housing Connector, Jeanette worked as a DV Shelter Housing Coordinator, a Mental Health Housing Specialist, and a Classification Counselor for incarcerated men. 

In her role at Housing Connector, Jeanette helps Tacoma Housing Authority’s voucher holders navigate Pierce County’s challenging rental market. Jeanette works to connect voucher holders to Housing Connector’s Property Partners who have reduced their screening criteria to better serve the community and increase housing access. 

In her free time Jeanette and her two children are avid explorers of all the natural wonders that the Pacific Northwest has to offer.
