Shipping Wars’ Token Hot Chick Is a Former Accountant?

As far as reality show accountants go, I guess Shipping Wars' Jennifer Brennan isn't quite the caliber of the PwC Dumpster Diver but does compete well with Cosmo bachelor and country hottie Tripp Davis.

If you haven't caught this A&E "reality" show about moving strange loads cross-country, "Texas Cowgirl" is basically the resident hottie. She claims to be born and raised on a cattle ranch in Texas, though her A&E bio mentions nothing about her alleged background in accounting:

 

Don’t let her good looks fool you; Jennifer is about as tough and competitive as they come. Born and raised on a cattle ranch in Texas, she learned the meaning of a hard day’s work at an early age. Her love of horses continued into her teens, when she would participate with her family in the rodeo circuit.
 
After college, Jennifer’s roots came calling back and she began not only training and riding horses, but transporting exotic quarter horses and livestock around the country full time. Since joining uShip, Jennifer’s loads have expanded beyond just farm animals. Now a typical load for Jennifer can be anything from fainting goats to a water buffalo and a million-dollar Ferrari.

According to her uShip profile, however, she ditched accounting to do this shipping thing full time:

I am an independent transporter that can ship anything from farm animals to a million-dollar Ferrari. Growing up in a Rodeo family, I’ve been hauling livestock ever since I could take the driver’s seat. Recently, I decided to throw away my accounting calculator and take the plunge into shipping and transporting animals and household goods full-time.

Gossip site Starcasm called her a "a stunning former CPA and model" but I have a feeling that's more a hack gossip site confusing "accountant" with "CPA" than anything else as I wasn't able to find any license under Jennifer's full name in the state of Texas or CPAVerify. Besides, who has time to study for the CPA exam between hauling livestock and modeling?

My guess is her "accounting" background is really more like a few accounting classes in college and A&E just needed a hot chick to balance Roy's less-than-pretty disposition.
