Your Trusted Partners

Hi, I’m Jennifer, founder of Next Step Benefits, insurance guide, mom of two, and big believer that health coverage doesn’t have to be confusing. After 16 years in banking and a start in employee benefits, I found my calling helping real people—like you—navigate Medicare and Marketplace plans with clarity and confidence. I’m based in Eastern Oregon, but I work with clients across the region, bringing honest advice, straightforward answers, and a little humor when it’s needed most. If you’re looking for someone who’ll stick with you long after the paperwork is done, you’re in the right place.

While Next Step Benefits is proudly based in Eastern Oregon, I work with individuals, families, and small businesses across a wide range of states—including Washington, Idaho, Montana, Colorado, Arizona, Oklahoma, Texas, and Pennsylvania. Whether you're just down the road or a few time zones away, you’ll get the same honest guidance, clear explanations, and ongoing support. From Medicare to Marketplace coverage, I’m here to help—wherever you call home.
