Really Professional Internet Person

Through her pranks, sketches, and videos about everyday life, Jenn has become a mouthpiece for millennials and one of YouTube's fastest rising stars!

Jenn McAllister, better known as JennxPenn, has been obsessed with making videos since she found her parents video camera at the age of eight. A shy child, Jenn turned to film because, unlike life, there can always be a do-over. Really Professional Internet Person offers both an insider's guide to building a successful YouTube channel and an intimate portrait of the surreality of insta-fame and the harsh reality of high school. Brimming with honesty, heart and Jenn's patented sense of humor, Really Professional Internet Person features top ten lists, photos, screenshots, social media posts and never-before-posted stories chronicling Jenn's journey from an anxious middle-schooler just trying to fit in, to a YouTube sensation unafraid to stand out.

Jenn McAllister, better known as JennxPenn to her fans and the Internet, is one of the reasons that it's now cool to be geeky and a girl. The wildly fun, energetic 18 year old has gained notoriety over the last 6 years on YouTube and successfully translated her following into working with tier-1 brands like Brandy Melville, Old Navy and Mattel. Last year, she served as the official Social Correspondent of Goldfish at the 2014 Jingle Ball, was a 2014 Teen Choice Award nominee, and hosted a national tour for musician, Tyler Ward. She understands her power and believes in utilizing this strength towards educating and rallying her fans for good. A video dedicated to voting for Ourtime.org was recognized by Vanity Fair on National Voter Registration Day. In addition, Jenn just wrapped her first feature, BAD NIGHT, which includes costars Casey Wilson, Adam Pally, and Matt Walsh.
