Jennifer Schwab Wangers is the Founder and CEO of ENTITY, she has one goal in mind: to support and empower women through education and mentorship.
Mentorship isn’t just her business model, it’s her passion. Her driving force in founding ENTITY was her lack of female mentors in her 20s, leaving her to learn solely through trial and error. Despite this, she was able to build a successful career, which motivated her to pay it forward to the next generation of leaders by providing support early in their career trajectory. After leaving her job as a tax consultant at Ernst & Young to pursue her passions, and co-founding Sierra Club Green Home, a preeminent sustainable lifestyle website, she launched ENTITY in 2016. Since then, she’s built the company to be the first-ever bootcamp education brand dedicated to educating and placing women of all ages and backgrounds in 21st century careers. As an Indian-American woman, diversity and inclusion in the workplace are some of Jennifer's main goals.
Outside of ENTITY, Jennifer is a huge advocate for sustainability, and has been featured in The Huffington Post, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Dwell, Fortune, Forbes, CNN Money, CNBC, and Consumer Reports, among others. She has also appeared on WSJ Lunch Break, NBC-U, CBS, NYT, and Fox News. Jennifer was previously a frequent green expert guest on ABC’s Good Morning America.
In 2013, she completed a Fulbright Fellowship in Israel, with emphasis on water management and sustainability. Jennifer follows design avidly and is a long-time hobbyist pilot licensed in a high-performance, multi-engine aircraft. She received her B.S. in Accounting from University of Arkansas; her M.A. in Urban Planning from UC Irvine; and studied Environmental Design at Art Center College of Design.
In her spare time, she loves designing unique spaces, collecting mid-century modern furniture, and spending time with her husband, stepdaughters, and dog, Papi.
