The Insider:
Whether she is sipping on margaritas at the local tex-mex restaurant, typing out lines of endless code, or on a road trip to go cruise her projects at Hueco, Jennie King is always psyched. She is constantly striving to achieve that primal euphoria that we obtain while climbing. After earning her Masters degree in computer science, King high-tailed it to Texas for the ill pockets, steep roofs, and southern hospitality. During the day, she is hashing out her mad computer skills, but usually cuts out early to go run laps on other peoples projects at the local crag in the 97 degree Austin summer. That's the Jennie King psyche, and she brings it to the table everywhere she goes.
