AI Strategy & Data Innovation.
Prior to joining TSTS, Schoonmaker led an enterprise AI and analytics program for a national workforce solutions company, where she built and scaled cross-functional teams spanning AI engineering, data science, and data analytics.
“Finding someone of Jeanna’s caliber who made the early transformation from software development into artificial intelligence – someone who has firsthand capabilities and executive-level business strategy – is atypical,” said Beth Tinsman, chairman and founder of Twin State Technical Services. “Schoonmaker has the capability to guide companies to apply the when, where, and which of the AI tools, and builds business strategy into practical systems people use to drive big and measurable results.”
Schoonmaker joins AI Director Benjamin Driscoll and the TSTS AI team to build data-grounded solutions for small businesses, schools, community governments, and nonprofit organizations.
“Every business has data and access to AI. My focus is on how AI can turn data into revenue and solve business problems,” said Schoonmaker. “That’s the conversation I want to have with clients: understanding how they want to grow, then building a path where custom data and AI solutions can help get them there. I’m excited to bring that focus to TSTS and help organizations across our community put AI and data to work in ways that grow their businesses.”
Schoonmaker earned a bachelor’s degree from Brigham Young University and currently resides in the QCA. She is actively involved in Pleasant Valley Choir Booster Organization and serves as the treasurer. She is also an active member of the Technology Association of Iowa, helping her stay connected to the state’s technology-based economy.
