Jenna grew up in Enumclaw WA, a small rural farming community south of Seattle. In her early 20s, she enrolled at Green River College, where she earned an Associate of Arts degree and transferred to the University of Washington in Seattle. As a first generation student from a low-income background and an undiagnosed disability, Jenna eventually graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and enrolled in graduate school to pursue Experimental Psychology at Central Washington University. Two years into graduate school, Jenna experienced health complications that ultimately revealed her undiagnosed ADHD. She left graduate school to focus on identifying priorities and find a direction. After meeting her spouse and moving to Wenatchee in 2016, Jenna pursued a career in higher education. With a background in college-level teaching, admissions, and student services, Jenna found passion in supporting students through academic advising. After working in TRIO Student Support Services and becoming a certified appreciative adviser, Jenna enrolled in graduate school once more to pursue her Master of Science in Academic Advising through Kansas State University. Now the Student Access Manager at WVC, Jenna is a proud disability advocate, supporting students, staff, and faculty in Wenatchee and Omak to better navigate equitable access to education at our institution.

After moving to Wenatchee in late 1969, Nick grew up a few blocks away from Wenatchee Valley College and each summer he attended youth football camps on campus. Upon graduating from Wenatchee High School in 1982, he enrolled at WVC and enjoyed a couple more years in town, playing football, skiing at Mission Ridge, and working part-time while going to classes. A couple years later, he enlisted in the United States Army, serving as a medic at Winn Army Community Hospital on Fort Stewart, GA, before returning to Central Washington University, where he completed his Bachelor of Science in Paramedicine and earned a Commission in the United States Army. Having fulfilled his military duty at Fort Benning, GA, Nick returned home to Wenatchee, where he and his wife raised their three children and continue to live today. In 2016, following 25 years of commuting over Stevens Pass, he retired from his career as a Firefighter/Paramedic in Snohomish County and returned to Wenatchee Valley College to work in the Allied Health Department as a medical simulation lab technician. Then, in the fall of 2022, he had the opportunity to transition to Student Access Services as a program assistant. |
