Jennifer Kent, Senior VP, Parks Associates: Women in Security

We continue our Women in Security Q&A series with Jennifer Kent, senior vice president and principal analyst at Parks Associates. She shares her security industry mentors, her proudest career accomplishment and how the sector can become even better.

Jennifer Kent started with Parks Associates in 2009, studying technology trends and what consumers want from their technology providers in and around the home. Security systems and services providers are a key channel bringing new technologies into the home so my research brought me into discussion with the leading security brands right.

Tricia Parks, the founder and CEO of Parks Associates, was incredibly influential early in my career. She is a researcher at heart and personally led the research team for my formative years as an analyst. Her edits of my work helped me transition from academic language to business communication and shaped how I assess market trends, distinguishing what information is strategic versus simply descriptive.
