Jenn Lorenz

Founder and Principal

Meet Jenn, a seasoned executive with more than two decades of experience. After nearly two decades of driving operational excellence within the NYS Office of Information Technology Services, Jenn ascended to lead the agency, where she set and executed the state's technology and cyber strategy, budget, workforce, operations, communications, and legal and legislative affairs.

Through years of modernizing rigid legacy IT systems and navigating complex legislative mandates, Jenn developed a deep understanding of what it takes to guide operations through unpredictable challenges. A military veteran and Distinguished Fellow at the Future Government Institute, she now shares those practical, tech-forward insights through her consulting work and her book, 10 Little Rules for Getting IT Done, a journal-style guide focused on building personal resilience, maintaining focus, and leading with steady confidence.
