Background

Ms. Warren has over eighteen years of experience in the field of communications. She has worked specifically in the areas of financial services, business management, public policy, global economics and sustainable development/growth in regards to resources such as capital, energy, water, and agriculture. A wide array of writing and communication projects have been completed for corporate and institutional clients.

In 1989, Ms. Warren graduated from the London School of Economics (LSE) with an M.Sc. in European Studies (emphasis economics). She graduated with honors from the University of Denver with a double major in Finance and Marketing. While in London, after the LSE, she studied fine art and architecture with Sotheby's. She also studied Russian for four years throughout her university days.

Jennifer is a Fellow for the Next Generation Project at Columbia University. She is published in various academic, policy and business publications such as Far Eastern Economic Review, Economist Intelligence Unit’s Executive Briefing, D CEO, Journal of Structured Finance, and others. She has been interviewed for numerous radio broadcasts and news stories, and presented at various conferences.

A few other interests color her work. She completes a fundraising initiative every year for an Indian humanitarian NGO. Additionally, a travelogue about a trip to India was published in 1997 to document the new discovery of an ancient cave. She has written about economic developments in China since 1996 in a professional capacity, but the fascination began in 1984 with a first theory in writing that China would become more capitalistic. Much of her work has a research-based orientation or underpinning. An overall theme in her work is understanding how complex systems interact, and how the individual can adapt and thrive within them — whether it’s resource sustainability, retirement security, or best management practices.
