Executive Board

Jenny Alfrey

President

My name is Jenny Alfrey and my husband Brett and I have two girls awesome children: Honor is in 5th grade at Valor and Maggie is in 3rd grade at PPE. I was thrilled and honored to join the PPE Executive Board so that I could give back to this awesome community and school. After volunteering last year I wanted to do more and I especially love meeting new wonderful people every day through this work. Outside of helping the PTO I am a Marketing Director for a biotech company and travel for work (and fun!) often. My favorite PPE event is a new one – the Tiger Dash Color Run! What a unique community event that combined fun and color and I can’t wait for this year’s run.

In my professional life I am a banker with FirstBank, a community bank headquartered here in Nashville.
My favorite thing about PPE is just how far-reaching our school community is. I don’t go a day without talking to a current or former parent or PPE alumnus!
