In 2008, Jill left her home town of Bethlehem, PA to attend The College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, Mass where she earned her B.A. in Psychology.  She spent her final semester of undergrad interning at Burncoat High School in Worcester, where she was a statistics tutor and helped co-facilitate a group on resiliency for at-risk youth in the school. Also while at Holy Cross, Jill was a coxswain for the Varsity Women’s Rowing team where she developed her passion for hard work and competition. 

Following graduation from Holy Cross, Jill went straight to graduate school here at Lehigh. While pursing her M.Ed. in School Counseling, she completed her internship at Freedom High School in Bethlehem—her own high school alma mater --- happy to get involved in the community that supported her early development.

She is the student representative for the school counseling program and also joined the coaching staff of Lehigh’s rowing team.
