Jennifer O. Laurence, President and Founder

Jennifer is a consummate hospitality professional who has loved domesticity for as long as she can remember. Early in her college career, she discovered the world of professional home management and private service through an estate management internship and knew she had found her calling. Her passionate commitment to pursuing unique educational experiences led her to graduate with honors from the only all women’s hospitality school in North America, a unique bachelor's program where the business of hospitality was always balanced with elevating the art of domestic service. She has continued to devote herself to professional development in hospitality and private service, completing her master’s degree with honors in hospitality from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, a Wine Sommelier certificate, a Visual Communications certificate, is a trained Protocol Officer from The Protocol School of Washington, and attended the prestigious Charles MacPherson Academy for Butlers and Household Managers where she graduated top of her class.

For over 25 years, she has worked in all areas of hospitality and private domestic service, as well as in commercial property management and facility services. This blend of experiences has made her a very successful private service professional. She uses her strong hospitality and facilities management business foundation and balances it with the grace and decorum needed to work in private service. Throughout her career, she has served affluent clients, celebrities, and successful business professionals in their home and office settings, making even the most minor details extraordinary for those she serves. Ms. Laurence frequently travels to meet client needs and can be contracted for brief or extended on-site visits. She is passionate about the private service industry and served on the board of the Chicago chapter of the Domestic Estate Managers Association from 2010 to 2020. She is now the Principal Liaison Director on the advisory board of Private Service Alliance, an elite professional organization for the private service industry, where she is a resource and advocate for principal estate owners and their teams nationwide.
