Dartmouth College Ranks Jeannie Cullen Schultz in 100 Greatest Athletes of All Time
Jeannie Cullen Schultz, Co-President of JP Cullen, has had a very successful athletic and professional career to date. One more accolade has been added to her resume. Dartmouth College just released their Top 100 Greatest Athletes of All Time list, and Jeannie has made that list.
Jeannie attended Dartmouth College from 2002 – 2006 and was a star student-athlete on the women’s basketball team. She scored 1,481 points and played in 112 games, averaging 12.2 points per game. Jeannie is the record holder for three-point makes in the Ivy League. She led her team to Ivy League championships and the NCAA Tournament, almost upsetting the number 2 seed, Rutgers University.
Jeannie intended to pursue a career in sports coaching, but the prospect of joining the family business changed that path. She started as a project manager for the HVAC contractor North American Mechanical. In 2013, Jeannie was tasked with expanding the healthcare market in Dane county, including growing the team of healthcare experts. Then in 2020, she stepped into the Co-Presidency role and now leads a $500 million a year firm and a staff of 650 people.
Jeannie has a competitive nature born out of years of playing sports throughout high school and college. She has experienced first-hand the power of a talented, unified team and has made that the foundation of JP Cullen’s mission.
