SVUDL Welcomes Jennifer Min to the Board of Directors

Jennifer Min's enthusiasm for SVUDL stems from witnessing firsthand the transformative power of education. She began in the business world as a financial analyst at Morgan Stanley and strategy consultant at Bain & Company. Driven by a deep interest in education, she transitioned to become a classroom teacher and school leader.

For over 20 years, Jennifer taught high school mathematics and economics. As a founding member of the Upper School of The Nueva School in San Mateo and Hillsborough, she helped establish the school's foundation by recruiting and mentoring new teachers, designing academic programs and policies, and supporting advisory and co-curricular programs.

As an educator, Jennifer has observed students in Speech and Debate classes and tournaments year after year, witnessing their remarkable growth as debaters, students, and community members. "I am very excited about DCI (Debate Centered Instruction) —both for students and teachers," she explains. "There is great potential to reach many more students and to energize teachers in new and creative ways."

Jennifer brings a strategic perspective and operational business background as well as grounded experience as a classroom teacher and school administrator.

She brings a wealth of community experience, having served in a variety of roles across multiple organizations: Silicon Valley Venture Fund (SV2), StreetCode Academy, Eastside College Prep, Children’s Health Council, SMART (Schools, Mentoring and Resource Team), and Keys School.

Jennifer is honored to join SVUDL’s Board of Directors, and support SVUDL’s mission to help students achieve their fullest potential by finding their voices, thinking critically, and leading with purpose and empathy. Jennifer holds a B.S. from Cornell University and an M.B.A. from Harvard Business School.
