EMPLOYEE SPOTLIGHT: MEET JENN CHARLSON!
Here at Lynnpro , we strive to put our employees first, and we love giving you the opportunity to “meet” them each month through our newsletter. For this inaugural issue, we’re happy to introduce Jenn Charlson, one of the wonderful women who keeps our operation running like clockwork. Jenn is our go-to employee in the production area, where she has the vital task of making the screens, which hold the images for every shirt we make. She works in both pre- and post- production and handles scraping, washing, and burning the screens as well as making sure that specialty embroidery and sublimation projects stay on track. She’s always there to help Cheri, the production manager, with anything she needs, and Jenn also works one-on-one with our artist, Sofia, to make sure every design fits the client’s vision.
We’ve relied on Jenn for three years now. Before she came to Lynnpro , she spent 12 years as a stay-at-home mom to her two boys, now 19 and 21. Jenn says that as soon as her boys were ready to leave the nest, she wanted to be out of the house, too. Even though she didn’t have any experience with printing — she worked in a factory before taking time off to raise her kids — she was a fast learner and quickly moved up from manual work on the Lynnpro production floor to checking designs in the digital room. “I like to keep going, work, and be busy,” Jenn says. “I hate to just sit on anything. One perk of my job is that my day is different every day.” When she isn’t at the office, you can probably find Jenn at the dog park, where she and her husband take their two pit bulls — a brother- sister pair named Ellie and Sven — to play ball.
They also have two tiny chihuahuas named Chunky and Storm who are always thrilled to welcome them home. Next time you open a perfect order of T-shirts from Lynnpro , take a moment to think of Jenn and all of her hard work; we couldn’t have done it without her.
