Jennifer Cohn’s work has taken her from law enforcement to building an HVAC company with her husband in Bryan County. Cohn, 38, is among the county residents featured in a 20 Under 40 profile series.
Born and raised in Bryan County, Cohn graduated from Bryan County High School in 2006. After considering different college paths, she settled on a career in policing. She joined the police academy in 2015 and later worked as a local police officer and detective.
After her third child was born in 2020, Cohn says she decided her children needed more time with her at home. She and her husband, Cory, began planning an HVAC business during a conversation on their front porch. They opened Platinum Air Repair LLC the following Monday.
The company provides residential and commercial HVAC services in Bryan County and surrounding communities. Cohn says balancing family, public service and the demands of growing a small business has underscored the value of hard work, consistency and taking care of the community.
Cohn says she and her husband hope to grow the business while creating good careers, serving their neighbors and building something their children can be proud of. She also hopes their experience shows that people can build something meaningful without having every step figured out from the start.
