Jen Stocks would like to confess she works best
under deadline pressure- but that fact alone didn't
turn her into the multi-talented hit television
producing machine she¹s become. She also
possesses a free-wheeling imagination and a gift
for organization (two traits that were once thought
to be impossible to find in one brain). But, perhaps
the number one gift she brings to her work as
a storyteller is the strange compulsion people
have to tell her their secrets.
³For some reason people
have always like to confide in me. I have no idea
why but they just like to tell me their secrets²
After graduating from Emerson College with a
BA in communications (and a bundle more secrets
she¹s not at liberty to discuss), Jen moved
to California to begin her work in television,
quickly turning her unique blend of skills into
a career to be proud of and working her way from
writing the cue cards for The New Newlywed Game,
to producing, directing and writing hours of emotionally
powerful television. She¹s thrilled with
this evolution, not only because it¹s more
satisfying intellectually and allows her to travel
the country meeting fascinating people, but also
because she was never regarded as an ³A-list²
cue card writer in LA.
³I would always leave
a word or two out... no matter how hard I tried!²
But, LA was not home and after
8 years, she made the tough decision to leave the
epicenter of the tv world for North Carolina to
be nearer her family (and adorable niece!). Little
did she know at the time this would prove a brilliant
career move. But soon, Advanced Medical heard about
Jen and she heard about Advanced Medical and the
rest is history.
When Jen is not producing brilliant television she
enjoys playing with her niece, searching for the
perfect sushi bar, training for the occasional triathlon,
and collecting more secrets.
