Best Known For
Being the showrunner of the drama-comedy, Jane the Virgin aired on The CW network.
First Film
Her first-ever work in a theatrical film was as a writer when she wrote the screenplay for Something Borrowed (2011).
First TV Show
Her first ever work for a TV show was as a staff writer on Hope & Faith from 2003 to 2005.
Her Twitter bio says that she hates cheese even if it’s on a pizza.
Right after college, Jennie worked as a waitress in New York and thoroughly enjoyed it until the novelty of her newfound independence wore off.
She relocated to Los Angeles, California a day before the 9/11 tragedy.
Jennie admires strong women and their thoughts and companionship. Consequently, she hires a lot of female writers and directors for her show.
Additionally, she also enjoys exploring and writing about the mother-daughter relationship which is reflected the most in her role as a co-producer for Gilmore Girls (2006–2007).
Procrastinating during the editing process of Jane the Virgin, got Jennie hooked to the wasteful habit of online shopping. She eventually replaced it with coloring books that also helps her to re-align mentally before going back to editing.
Her biggest extravagance to spoil herself is to travel by business class much to the disapproval of her husband.
Jennie is self-made in the television industry. She started her way at the bottom as a staff writer and went through 8 promotions to lead a TV show.
Her initial career goal was to become an actress. She claimed that she was neither determined nor thick-skinned enough to handle the criticism and the rejection of the industry to make it.
Being a private person, Jennie is not social media savvy at all. The network made it a mandatory requirement for her to create a Twitter.
