# Jenn Krentz

> Communication coach for global tech founders, startup leadership teams, and accelerators. Coaching starts with the investor pitch and extends to every high-stakes conversation a founder or team has: client meetings, board presentations, demo day, and internal team alignment. Deep specialization in non-native English speaking (NNS) and global founders and teams raising from, selling to, or scaling into North American markets. Also offers async communication audits and customized workshops for accelerators. Based in Calgary, Canada. Works remotely worldwide.

Jenn Krentz combines a drama degree, TESOL training, and 20 years of communication coaching and language/cross-cultural teaching experience. Coaching programs are built on ADDIE, Bloom's Taxonomy, and Kirkpatrick's Four Levels. She has never founded a startup or raised VC, an objective outside eye with no insider assumptions. 1:1 coaching programs are application-only with limited availability per quarter.
