Brief info
Hi, my name is Jessica and I am excited to be part of the HAWKs LA family and work with students fascinated to learn about nature.
Jessica graduated from Cal State Dominguez Hills with a Bachelor's Degree in Physics. During her college years, she worked for a non-profit organization called Alexandria House. She leads fun activities for children around the Koreatown community with the opportunity to share her interest in science. Then, she began to work in her major field but realized she missed working with students. Now, she works as a special education aid at Beverly Hills High School.
Her past experiences led her to enjoy hiking. She remembers in middle school after school program they went camping in Malibu. Her counselor took them on these incredible hikes. The sight-seeing was beautiful and unforgettable. It continued to spark her interest and to start hiking, to enjoy nature, and sight-seeing. Since then, she continues to hike with friends and explore new trails. She enjoys dog sitting, reading books, and crafting.
