Employee Profile: Jennifer Wilson

Jennifer Wilson joined Concept2’s Customer Service Team in 2003 after learning about the job from long-time friend and one of the first Concept2 employees, Bob Beeman. She grew up in neighboring Hyde Park, but now boasts the “Lives Closest to Work” title, living only 3/10 of a mile from our offices in Morrisville, Vermont. “Sure makes walking or biking to work easy!” she says.

When not busy on the phones helping Concept2’s “awesome customers,” Jennifer is most likely to be found in the Concept2 gym getting in a CrossFit WOD (Workout Of the Day) or hitting the pavement for a run. She has completed two half marathons and has a third coming up soon. She will also compete in the Spartan Beast Race this fall as the only woman on the Concept2 team! No wonder she currently holds the coveted Concept2 Athletic Achievement award that is bestowed upon one Concept2 employee each year.

CrossFit has become a family affair, as her firefighter husband and two sons, ages 11 and 8, both work out as well. When not lifting weights or running, Jennifer enjoys doing anything outside with her family; biking, hiking, skiing, swimming, camping, and gardening are all favorite pastimes. In the winter, she and her family also stay busy running a 450-tap maple sugaring operation. Jennifer lives in Morrisville, Vermont, with her husband Brad, sons Jake and Wesley, and their beloved German Shepherd, Ani.

Jen offers this quote, which inspires her every day: “Be strong when you are weak, brave when you are scared, and humble when you are victorious.”
