My name is Jenna Ahn. I am an entrepreneur and speaker on a mission to guide students and educators become the best versions of themselves.

I’m currently available for speaking engagements.

Jenna Ahn is co-founder and CEO of Millie, where she is pursuing her life-long aspiration to help high-school students who need guidance when it comes to choosing universities and careers.

Since founding Millie, Jenna has been included in the Forbes Next 1000 list as one of the “most inspiring entrepreneurs on their way to breakthrough success”.

Previously, Jenna worked in Fortune 100 firms, and built her reputation as the go-to person for anything data science and emerging technology related. She has led a variety of strategic initiatives in New York, London, and Singapore, most recently as VP of AI Research at J.P. Morgan. While she was still in college, she built a successful education consulting business from scratch, making over $120k in annual revenue and laying the foundations for what would become Millie a few years later.

She holds a BS in Operations Research & Engineering from Cornell University, an MS in Data Science from Northwestern University, and a dual degree MBA from Columbia University & London Business School.

Jenna is an insatiable learner who enjoys yoga, meditation, and coaching young professionals in her free time. Read Jenna's blog about her journey here.
