Jessica is responsible for orchestrating the seamless delivery of Executive Development programs, coordinating all operational elements from inception through completion, while serving as the primary point of contact for clients, participants, faculty, and delivery partners.
Jessica began her career in television production and public media. At PBS North Carolina (formerly UNC-TV), she worked as a video editor for a local tourism show before being promoted to producer. In 2021, she took a detour into advertising for just over a year before realizing that the world of education was where she belonged. In early 2023, she joined UNC Executive Development as a Program Manager.
In her time with UNC Executive Development, Jessica has worked with clients of varied sizes and across multiple industries, including oil and gas, insurance, industrial retailers, and HVAC service management. She excels at attention to detail and consistently delivers the Carolina Experience to her clients, internal partners, and participants with a caring, empathetic approach to customer service.
Jessica lives in Raleigh with her husband, Matt, and their young son, Elio. When she is not watching Jeopardy with her husband or chasing her son on the playground, she loves visiting her local library and listening to her favorite podcast, Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend.
Jessica is a proud graduate of UNC-Chapel Hill, where she earned a Bachelor of Arts in international relations.
