Listen to a new episode of YNS Live with @nflthread recorded live on @fireside with hosts @iamjuliethahn and @cynthiazordich featuring Special guest Jen Archuleta
Growing up in a large family in Ohio, Jennifer was always surrounded by love and support. But at 18, she made the bold decision to leave her family and move out west to chase her dreams of living by the beach and experiencing life in the big city.
Arriving in Los Angeles wasn't easy; she faced financial and emotional struggles. But as they say, when the going gets tough, the tough get going.
Jennifer eventually found her footing as a freelance makeup artist, working on movie sets. A chance encounter at the Playboy Mansion changed her life.
While working as an assistant to a makeup artist, Jennifer caught the eye of Hugh Hefner, which led her to a career in modeling. Although she never imagined herself in that world, she embraced the opportunity.
In 2008, Jennifer retired from modeling to focus on her growing family. Now, she's happily married to former NFL safety @adamarchuleta31 and currently a commentator for CBS. They have been together for over 18 years and have three beautiful children, five dogs, and two tortoises.
Over the years, Jennifer has discovered a deep passion for helping others. She has been a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) for foster children and volunteered for Childhelp for the last eight years. As a survivor of childhood trauma herself, it's important for her to give back to those in need.
