Jennifer grew up on a small farm outside of Hannibal, Missouri. Her father was a construction worker and her mother a journalist. She was raised with 1 brother who is 4 years younger. Their next door neighbor was her great-grandparents about half a mile down the gravel road. All of her grandparents were very involved, helping raise Jennifer and contributing to who she turned out to be! It was a very nice, slow-paced way to grow up. Jennifer and her brother only had each other growing up out in the country so they played together a lot. They are very close to this day. Jennifer joined the army as a medic after graduating high school. She is now a medical human resources officer and retires from the Army in June of 2023. She has a Master’s degree in Business Administration and hopes to teach high school science after retiring from the Army. Jennifer volunteers coaching high school track and cross country.
