The Quintessence Team

Jen Schildgen

A Jill of all trades, Jen has long been a creative entrepreneur, offering artwork, photography, and videography in the Lake Geneva and greater Chicagoland areas. However, her heart sings most when she’s out in nature, playing in the dirt, feet and hands muddy, with plants nearby.

She is a poet, an author, a media maven, and has the heart of a wild woman. She’d much rather spend a night under the stars in a tent than a 5-star hotel {although those are nice too}, and she believes deeply in the healing power of nature and the magic that can unfold when we tap into our authentic selves.

Having grown up on 40 acres of land in Mideastern Wisconsin, Jen is no stranger to life in the country. Between many seasons spent helping tend to the orchard on her family’s land, waking up at night to stoke the wood-burning stove, mowing acres of lawn and paths on the property, and caring for all manner of plant life from an early age, she’s ready to return to her roots and encourages others to experience the richness of a life lived in harmony with nature.

Jen is also a certified Energy Coach and offers Akashic Records readings.

The team aspect here is a bit quiet these days, as Quintessence is still evolving. Check back in for further updates.
