Jen is the CEO and Executive Consultant of ALKMY Advisors and the President and Owner of the Women of Mergers & Acquisitions Network.

ALKMY Advisors is an industry-agnostic M&A lifecycle consulting firm that partners with strategic buyers and business owners to prepare for, integrate, and optimize acquisitions so deal value is realized. 

ALKMY Advisors serves as an extension of executive leadership teams, leading functional and cross-functional integration initiatives across people, processes, and technology. Our work focuses on aligning operating models, integrating teams and workflows, and coordinating complex system integrations—often alongside enterprise platforms such as ERP, HRIS, CRM, and other core operational systems. 

Across every engagement, ALKMY Advisors embeds organizational change management best practices to ensure strategic initiatives translate into operational adoption and sustainable results. 

We support clients across the beginning and end of the M&A lifecycle, focusing on the following services: 

- Business Exit Readiness – leadership vision and value creation alignment, reducing owner dependence, strengthening organizational design and leadership roles, establishing operational processes to support diligence, and preparing financials for a future sale or investment. 

- M&A Integration – integration planning and execution leadership, workstream oversight, execution roadmaps, Integration Management Office (IMO) governance, stakeholder communications, training and readiness, technology rationalization, and value realization tracking. 

- Strategic Value Creation & Transformation – partnering with leadership teams and private equity sponsors to execute value creation initiatives across portfolio companies, including operational improvement, enterprise technology implementations (ERP, HRIS, CRM), scalable operating model design, and development of repeatable governance frameworks and playbooks. 

- Advisory Services – executive sounding board, leadership alignment, and change leadership training and coaching. 

Whether your organization is preparing for a future exit, pursuing growth through acquisitions, integrating tuck-ins, or optimizing operations post-close, ALKMY Advisors helps leadership teams translate strategy into execution and realize the full value of their transactions. 

 

The Women of Mergers & Acquisitions Network is a women's networking and membership organization. The mission is to enrich the lives of women in M&A. We support this through monthly events focused on our Inform, Connect, and Serve pillars.
