"Many people don't focus enough on execution. If you make a commitment to get something done, you need to follow through on that commitment."
Kenneth Chenault (Chairman and CEO of American Express, 2001 to 2018)
Jenefer is pictured with Jasper, who served as her campaign dog for the 2017 and 2019 election. Jasper was a rescue, joining the family in 2012 at around 4 years of age. He was the life and soul of the party, and only settled down into old age a few months before he crossed the rainbow bridge in May 2020. We still miss him very much.
