Jen has called Moscow home for most of her life and is a proud Moscow High School graduate (go Bears!). She went on to earn degrees from the University of Idaho and now teaches business fundamentals there, preparing students to succeed in both small business and corporate settings, and has professional experience in human resources, career development, and experiential learning that helps connect classroom concepts to real-world applications. 

Jen’s connection to the Palouse Clearwater Environmental Institute is both professional and personal—she and her husband, Stephen, rode their bikes through downtown Moscow in their wedding attire before celebrating with their reception at PCEI, making her commitment to the organization especially meaningful.  

Outside of work and board service, Jen can often be found pedaling Moscow Mountain or the Latah Trail, enjoying a good book, catching live music around Moscow, or heading out on a hike with Stephen and their dog, Greta.
