Jennifer aument -The new terminal one at JFK CEO

In the coming years, travelers arriving at New York’s JFK Airport will step into a space unlike any they have experienced before—a place where architectural ambition meets human connection, where the rhythms of the city intertwine with the stories of the world. At the center of this transformation stands Jennifer Aument, CEO of The New Terminal One at JFK, leading one of the most ambitious infrastructure projects in U.S. history.

The New Terminal One is not only the largest single-asset project financing ever undertaken in the country; it is a bold reimagining of what an airport can be. It is envisioned as more than a point of departure or arrival it is a cultural gateway, an economic driver, and a stage where millions of human moments will unfold each year.

In this conversation with Brunch Magazine, Ms. Aument shares her personal journey, the philosophy guiding her leadership, and her vision for a terminal that reflects both the dynamism of New York and the diversity of the world it serves. From the emotional electricity of the city to the quiet elegance of passenger focused design, she takes us inside a project that is set to redefine the language of global travel
