As a recent graduate from University of Washington, Jessica brings energy and a strong sense of excitement and enthusiasm to her first "real job" - at Strategies 360. She is looking forward to learning as much as possible from her talented colleagues. Throughout her college career, Jessica's growing interest in politics led her to many interesting opportunities and activities, including an exciting internship with Maria Cantwell s successful 2006 senatorial re-election campaign. At UW she had the opportunity to study International Communication as well as European Media Systems in Rome, Italy. During her time spent in Europe she discovered her passion for traveling and learning about new cultures, languages and cuisines. Jessica's newly discovered passion for travel has taken her most recently to the Middle East, where she spent time in both Israel and Jordan. Her next dream vacation? India. Jessica is a local Seattleite and true UW Husky. This past June, she graduated with honors and earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science and Communication, with a focus on political communication.
