Jennifer "Jenn" Kristen Peterson-Hind (born May 24, 1980, in Madison, Wisconsin) is a cast member on the television show Hi-5.

At a young age, she loved singing. Her parents made a rule that there was no singing at the dinner table, because Jennifer's constant singing annoyed them, as well as her younger siblings Melissa and Justin Hind [1] (part of the duo Justin and Tomek). Jennifer attended the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music where she met Tom Korbee, whom she would eventually marry. She has a BFA in musical theatre from The University of Cincinnati College Conservatory of Music.

In 2002, Jennifer was cast in the children's show Hi-5. On the show she plays "Jenn." The show is filmed in Sydney, Australia. Her four castmates are Kimee Balmilero, Karla Cheatham-Mosley, Curtis Cregan, and Shaun Taylor-Corbett. Jenn's segment is Word Play. She and her best friend, Chatterbox (puppet) or Chats for short (voiced by Karla Cheatham-Mosley in Series 1 and 2 and by Yasmeen Sulieman on the 2007 tour), are always eager to learn new words. She is the American counterpart of Kellie Hoggart.

Jennifer and Tom married on July 1st, 2006, in her hometown of Madison, Wisconsin and honeymooned in Port Douglas, Australia.

Jennifer's debut country solo album, Give a Girl a Reason, was released on June 12, 2007 on the label Groundwork Records which she founded along with her husband and producer Jace Smith. She filmed her first music video in May 2007 for her first single, "Good Night Tonight".

Jennifer is currently working on her second album. "This time," she says, "I really want to write everything."
