Jennifer Schillaci
In 2013, Jennifer set out on a bold adventure with her husband Frank and six of their seven children to embrace full-time life on the road. What began as a journey quickly became a lifestyle—filled with roadschooling, chasing sunsets, and visiting more dots on the map than most people see in a lifetime.Over the years, they’ve navigated the highs and lows of RV living, launched teens into adulthood from the back of a rig, and built a life rooted in flexibility, resilience, and family. Today, Jennifer and Frank not only continue their travels with 3 teens still at home (wherever the RV is parked)—they also own and operate RV Roofing Solutions, helping other road warriors stay safe and dry wherever the journey takes them.
