My Story
Jill is a God-fearing, outdoor-loving, Netflix-binging, friend and family-obsessed parent of twins, Noah and Eleanor. She is married to her fabulous husband, Brent, and together they live in St. Louis, Missouri, with said goofball twins.
Jill has been writing professionally for nearly 10 years. She has a Ph.D. in religion and social change with an emphasis in media studies, and she originally started her career as a college professor. But, the game of life (and marriage) quickly took her into the world of marketing and communications and speechwriting in higher education. Currently, she serves as Director of Executive Communications at Washington University in St. Louis. People think her job sounds really cool. And guess what—it is! She has been doing—and loving—it ever since.
Jill’s writing has appeared in chapter books, edited volumes, journals, magazines and blogs. In addition, she has written hundreds of speeches for presidents, heads and administrators of educational institutions. She has received a few awards for her work, including a GOLD InspirED Brilliance award for best private school digital magazine. All of her writing relates in some way to education.
