She was the co-founder and publisher of Clamor, an award-winning quarterly magazine covering radical culture and politics. In 2002, she was named as one of “30 Under 30 Visionaries who are Changing the World” (along with Clamor co-publisher Jason Kucsma) by Utne Reader. She was a founding board member of Allied Media Projects, a non-profit independent media advocacy organization.

Jen's publishing history includes writing her personal zine Fucktooth (1991-2000), publishing the Zine Yearbook (1996-2004), and editing Maximum Rock 'N' Roll from 1997-1998.

While living in Toledo, Ohio, she volunteered full-time for Clamor and cobbled together a living by booking tours and doing publicity for friends, writing grants and consulting on finance for other projects, and working miscellaneous temp jobs. She moved to Oakland, California in 2006, where she lived until her death in 2023. She was a core organizer of the Bay Area Anarchist Book Fair.
