Jennifer Naftelowitz

Self Advocate

My name is Jennifer Naftelowitz and I am 43 years old. I have lived in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn for a very long time. I live with my mom, and we have a great relationship.

I love hanging out with my friends and family and I love going to different sporting events and eating at different restaurants. I have worked at Morgan Stanley since 2013. Plus, I do karate on Tuesdays and go bowling on Fridays.

I’m also on the newsletter committee and help out with the self advocacy meetings. This year, 2026, I became president of the self advocacy group. I’m officially the president of Self-Advocacy for the rest of the year! My new position starts in September, and I am so excited. I’m also really happy to have my Vice President, Allan Fraser, right there with me if I ever get nervous.

I love to travel to different places that I’ve never been to before and I love going shopping at different malls, listening to music, doing my wordsearch puzzles, and making jewelry. I also love talking to my friends and going to the movies.
