Jessica graduated summa cum laude from Grove City College in 2022 with a bachelor’s degree in English and a minor in classical studies. During college, she interned with The Trinity Forum and discovered an interest for current affairs and nonprofit work. Her experience as editor-in-chief of the campus literary magazine and internship with a small publishing company only furthered her belief in the necessity of free speech.
When not at work, Jessica enjoys writing poetry, hiking, and watercolor painting.
