A proud two-time Hokie, Jessica earned her B.A. in Communication and her M.A.Ed. in Education from Virginia Tech.

Her career has included roles in career services, student success, and graduate program coordination. She also worked in human resources supporting onboarding and new-hire engagement, an experience that strengthened her transition-support skills.
