This week on Discussion Combustion, we’re joined by Jordan D. Renken, a dynamic professional whose journey spans education, leadership, and innovative business ventures. Referred to us by a trusted mutual connection, Jordan brings a unique perspective shaped by both classroom experience and real-world application.

Jordan walks us through his early career as an educator in Texas, where he taught Algebra II and advanced mathematics, before expanding his impact in Kansas City teaching both physics and math. He shares firsthand insight into the challenges educators face today, including school funding limitations and systemic pressures within the education system.

From there, we explore Jordan’s transition beyond the classroom and into his current professional work, including his involvement with MACRO Colorado and his affiliation with Energy Outreach Colorado, an organization focused on helping Coloradans afford home energy and access vital resources. His work reflects a commitment to community impact, sustainability, and connecting people with meaningful solutions.

Jordan’s journey highlights adaptability, service, and the ability to pivot into new opportunities while carrying forward the discipline and structure of his educational background.

This episode is a thoughtful look at growth, career evolution, and using your skillset to create real impact.
