Analyst Talk - Jennifer Corum - The Grateful Analyst
Episode: 00292 Released on November 10, 2025 Description: In this episode of Analyst Talk with Jason Elder, Jennifer Corum shares her remarkable 19 year journey with the Louisville Metro Police Department, including eight years as a crime analyst and her rise to Director of the Real Time Crime Center. From the early days of manually creating compstat maps to leading a 24/7 civilian staffed RTCC, Jennifer discusses how the field has evolved, the lessons she learned building a team from scratch, and how data and critical thinking drive modern policing.
Jennifer also opens up about leading through 2020’s social unrest, balancing motherhood, and surviving non Hodgkin’s lymphoma, a battle that reshaped her perspective on leadership, gratitude, and the unseen strength of caretakers. She highlights the vital role her husband played throughout her recovery, emphasizing how support systems at home and work make resilience possible.
This conversation is as much about courage and community as it is about crime analysis, and a must listen for anyone who believes in the people behind the data. 🎧 Listen, share, and keep talking! [Note: Description produced by ChatGPT.]
