ISCI 761 Introduction
August 22, 2024
Hello! My name is Jessica and welcome to my blog! I go by Jessica or Jess and my preferred pronouns are she/her/hers. I reside in Fort Mill, SC, and am a kindergarten assistant in the Fort Mill School District. My undergraduate degree is in Business Administration and I worked for several years in the marketing and finance industry. I made a career change and became the State Scholarship Coordinator for the University of Florida. While at UF, I earned my Master's degree in Educational Leadership with a focus on higher education administration. I took a break from my career to be a stay-at-home mom for my children. I began subbing at our local school district and discovered a passion for working with elementary school students. I have been a kindergarten assistant for 3 years.
I am in my second year of the MLIS program with the school track and EDI certificate. I will start my first internship next semester. My primary goal for this semester is to understand and utilize technology effectively in the elementary school library setting. I have really enjoyed using and playing around with Canva for many of my course projects. As an undergraduate student, I predominantly used Microsoft products. I now understand and appreciate the ease and user-friendly platform of Google.
Fun fact - I sang with a choir in college and we performed at the White House.
Here is a picture of myself and my family
I am excited for this course and getting to know you!
