Jenn DePew is a grassroots engagement director for Concerned Veterans for America in South Carolina.  

Coming from a proud military family, Jenn’s father, fathers-in-law, and son-in-law have served in the U.S. Navy, Army Air Corps, Marine Corps, and Army National Guard. Her husband, Paul, was a U.S. Air Force Gunner on the AC-130A Gunship during Vietnam and later served in the Air National Guard. Jenn herself was a Lieutenant JG in Naval JROTC during high school. 

Jenn earned a Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration and Political Science while working as an analyst with General Dynamics, gaining valuable insight into military weapon programs. Jenn also built a distinguished 20+ year career in the airline industry, holding key roles at United Airlines and Southwest Airlines.

After moving to Myrtle Beach in 2020, Jenn planned for retirement but was drawn into advocacy through volunteer work with the Agent Orange Awareness Group of South Carolina and the Orange Heart Medal Foundation. Inspired by her husband’s challenges with VA health care, she committed herself to fighting for veterans’ rights, ensuring they receive the care and support they deserve.
