Staff Spotlight: Jennifer Boone

Meet Jennifer!

Jennifer Boone joined the Brighter Bites corporate staff in April 2018 as a sourcing manager. She is responsible for securing the right quantity and best variety of fruits and vegetables for the families we serve in each of our Brighter Bites cities.

Jennifer is a huge produce-lover and is so excited that working with Brighter Bites means talking about produce all day! Jennifer always keeps her backyard garden full of fresh fruits and vegetables and enjoys incorporating her homegrown produce into her own recipes. Jennifer’s husband Mark loves taste-testing Jennifer’s veggie-inspired meals and will proudly admit that he eats more produce since meeting Jennifer than ever before! Jennifer also likes cooking recipes by Michelle Tam of Nom Nom Paleo, especially this veggie-packed pot sticker stir fry.

Jennifer grew up in Dallas and attended Texas A&M University, where she studied ecosystem science. As a student, she could name over 300 types of grasses and is now excited to learn to name a similar number of produce items!

Jennifer will be based in Dallas, working in the Brighter Bites Dallas offices. If you’re ever in the area, she recommends eating at Mudhen Meat and Greens, which was recently named Dallas’ best farm-to-table restaurant. Jennifer also enjoys dining at Kirin Court, known for its traditional dim sum, where you should arrive early and come hungry!

We hope you’ve enjoyed getting to know Jennifer as much as we have!
