Team
Jenelle McClenahen, CEO & Founder
Jenelle McClenahen is the CEO & Founder of Symplifyed, a company born from her firsthand experience as a classroom educator and her journey as a first-generation American and neurodivergent adult. While teaching, she began developing a clearer system for understanding how students learn through intentional goal-setting, behavior tracking, and progress monitoring. Her work is driven by the deeply held belief that every data point represents a real child and that a focused plan can unlock meaningful growth. This perspective was shaped both in the classroom and as a parent navigating her child’s autism diagnosis. Today, Jenelle leads Symplifyed in helping schools build simple systems that turn everyday data into clearer decisions, stronger support for neurodivergent learners, and real student progress.
