Career

While still in college, Jensen started working as a product and marketing manager for a pornographic DVD retail website. [6] She says she was approached at the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo in 2003 with the suggestion to model nude, which she soon began doing as her sole occupation. [2] Her first nude modeling appearance was in Club magazine. [1] Jensen had originally planned to continue modeling for a year to pay off her student debt. [6] She later decided to launch a website featuring her own adult films. [5] In 2009, she added hardcore pornography to her website. [7]
