Hello and welcome! My name is Jennifer and I am a Certified Mold Inspector and Moisture Intrusion Specialist from the International Association of Certified Mold Inspectors (NACHI). I am currently an active member of the National Organization of Remediators and Microbial Inspectors (NORMI) working towards my NORMI Pro accreditation where I will be certified in remediation protocols for sensitized individuals. I have a specialist interest in mycotoxins as they are often overlooked as part of indoor air quality and remediation practices.
Continuing education is key to staying on top of best practices and new products and this is something I do regularly through NORMI and NACHI. In addition, I have completed the Mold Masterclass and the Professional Home Inspection Institute’s Certified Residential Mold Inspector and Mold Remediation programs.
I am a member of the International Society for Environmentally Acquired Illness. My earlier years afforded me the opportunity to graduate with honors with a Bachelor’s Degree in Ethnic Studies. I am a lifetime member of the Phi Kappa Phi Honor Society and Golden Key Honor Society.
Why Mold?
I wasn’t always a certified mold inspector and mycotoxin specialist. My daughter and I lost every single thing we owned in December 2014 due to a mold and mycotoxin contaminated home. You can learn more about my story here.
After that experience I vowed to help others so they would not have to go to the extremes I went through. As part of my personal experience, I also learned just how much misinformation there was online about mold, mold removal and mold prevention. So I became a certified mold inspector with a focus on mold prevention and mycotoxins. My goal is to offer straightforward, digestible information for people in all types of mold situations.
