Episode 79: The Accidental Technologist

Episode Seventy-Nine: The Accidental Technologist
In this episode of The Power of Nine Podcast, host and Coalition9 Founder Aaron Eggert chats with Jen Swanson, Founder of Tuckpoint Advisory Group. Jen shares her journey from growing up in Roseville, Minnesota, to leading a boutique consulting firm that assists companies with optimizing process efficiency and effectiveness so employees and clients can get the outcomes they deserve.
They explore how the example set by her parents influenced her professional trajectory, how theater helped her find her voice, and her educational path from Hill-Murray High School to Iowa State University (undergrad) and Colorado State University (Master’s in Higher Education).
Jen also reflects on her career at several universities-including Hamline, the University of Minnesota, and Capella-and her eventual transition to technology and consulting. Today, through Tuckpoint Advisory Group, Jen helps companies shift their operating models to suit the modern delivery of great digital experiences.
Aaron and Jen also talk about their love of cussing, doing stupid shit during your college years, and 80s music.
