Jessica is the Adult Services Manager at the South Regional Library. She grew up in Ann Arbor, Michigan and moved to Durham in 2008. She has a master’s degree in creative writing from Kansas State University, and a master’s in library science from Wayne State University. She has loved the library for as long as she can remember, and when she was nine, she turned all her books into “library books” by making cards and pockets for all of them. When she’s not busy being a librarian, she loves to spend time with her son and her two wacky dogs, read, draw, and work on her photography.
