Coley Jens is a fascinating blend of adventurous spirit and dedicated environmental stewardship. Originally hailing from Detroit, Michigan, her formative years near Chicago ignited a lifelong passion for wildlife and critters, nurtured by frequent visits to museums and aquariums. A move to Florida in her youth only deepened this love affair with the natural world. After a stint in the military, including service in Afghanistan, Coley returned home to pursue her studies, initially focusing on zoology before pivoting towards microbiology and chemistry. This diverse academic background perfectly aligns with her current role as an environmental specialist, where she inspects hazardous materials such as diesel and oil to ensure environmental safety, even at facilities like jails.
