Hello, I'm Jessi, and my passion for education and student support began in my hometown of Green Bay, WI, where I participated in Upward Bound as a first-generation student. At the University of Wisconsin-River Falls (UWRF), I pursued communication studies and actively engaged in the Trio Student Support Services (SSS) program.

After earning my Masters’s in Higher Education from Fort Hays State University, I gained invaluable experience in the Twin Cities before returning to UWRF. As your coach, I'll encourage you to discover your dreams and help you set achievable goals for a transformative college experience.

Having personally experienced the impact of SSS, I'm dedicated to paying it forward by supporting students in their academic and personal growth journeys. My coaching experience equips me with a deep understanding of the challenges you may face and effective strategies to help you thrive.

Outside of my coaching role, you'll find me enjoying my hobbies of reading, traveling with my partner, and savoring delicious food with friends. I firmly believe in the power of education to shape a bright future, and I'm thrilled to be part of your college journey. Together, let's make it extraordinary!
