Hi, I'm Jillian! I'm passionate about youth empowerment, and anything dealing with helping people find deeper meaning and purpose through experience and reflection.

Currently, I'm a Senior Program Manager at Project Invent, a national nonprofit that empowers high school students to invent for social good.

I started my career as a Learning Behavior Specialist / STEM Teacher in Chicago through Teach for America. I'm originally from Ithaca, New York (Go Big Red!) and have called Chicago home for the past six years.
