Jen Wald

Jen is a longtime New Yorker, HR leader, and storyteller who believes in the power of connection, resilience, and reinvention. A dedicated sister, aunt, and avid traveler, she has spent her life embracing change, finding meaning in unexpected places, and building a life filled with curiosity and intention. After stepping away from her most recent HR role, she embraced a season of reflection, adventure, and personal growth—one that deepened her appreciation for beauty, culture, and the relationships that sustain her. Writing her story is a new and evolving part of that journey, and she looks forward to exploring it further.

The Sister I Miss, The Sister I Love

To my mother, Sandy, this is for you.

You were gone before I could know you, but you are in everything I am. You left behind three daughters by the time you were 30—Allyson, Andrea, and me. We grew up without you, but never without the love you gave us.

I’m sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you. I love you.
