Jen Cowan is the owner and founder of And Hattie Makes Three. It has always been her vision as a mom to help make long-lasting memories. She grew up in St. Louis and graduated from St. Louis University with a degree in Marketing. After graduating in ’04, she spent her time around the St. Louis Metro area in a recruitment capacity for a few Fortune 500 Companies. In 2012, she was recruited away to her dream job, to manage the Internship Program for MasterCard. She had so much fun building a strong program and becoming an employer of choice at Universities. So now, instead of lunch meetings and quick flights out to colleges, she spends her time as a part-time Girl Scout Leader, PTO Parent, Cheer Mom and focusing on Miss H. Her family has a pretty action-packed social calendar so she created this blog to document life and what they do, where they go, new things they try and what they love.
