Jennifer has always been passionate about social justice issues. She pursued a dual bachelor’s degree in History and Political Science from Graceland University. She went on to earn her Juris Doctorate from the University of Toledo. While earning her law degree, she met her husband Kris. After their respective graduations, they moved to Columbus, Ohio so that Kris could pursue his post-graduate degree in Chemical Engineering.
