Jamie has been active in the transgender community and transitioned from male to female around 1998. Fenton was drawn to computer technology while in school because its highly predictable nature appealed to her and it provided a haven from being picked on by other students.

She is also one of the creators of MacroMind's VideoWorks software (since renamed Macromedia Director).
