She worked nine years at Ivy Tech before coming to Purdue University, where she served as an administrative assistant at the Zucrow Labs for four years.  She then transferred to the Office of Student Services in the College of Pharmacy, where she worked most recently as a senior administrative assistant, primarily supporting the PharmD program.

In her personal time, Jennifer enjoys gardening, spending time at the beach or any body of water, and spending time with her fiancé and two cats, Zoe and Aries.

Welcome Jennifer!
