Jennifer Pascua is a savvy, strategic and collaborative communications professional, currently serving as Marketing Director for Broadway Grand Rapids. A communication person by love and by training, Jennifer has been a passionate cheerleader for the West Michigan community for nearly 20 years. After a 25-year run as a broadcast journalist, she segued her talents into various teaching and communications roles, including launching her own media freelance group during the pandemic, Halo Halo Multimedia, LCC. Her vast professional achievements include highlighting BIPOC businesses and organizations, fundraising for numerous non-profit organizations through various events and more. Her greatest achievement is raising her three sons—Devin, Drake and Payton—as a teen mom while working and earning her bachelor and master’s degrees.
Jennifer says, “No one begins or maintains a strong relationship without communication. So, if I have some communication skills that can bring people together and form potentially life-enhancing bonds, it almost becomes my obligation to share them in this way. It's an especially awesome privilege whenever I can connect an underrepresented community member with others who can help them grow.”
