Making connections has become especially important in these times of hybrid learning. A lifelong Delaware resident and graduate of University of Delaware, Jen holds a Bachelor's degree in Spanish Education, as well as a Masters degree in Educational Leadership. She uses her time as department chair to organize and promote the Certificate of Multiliteracy opportunity in her school district. Jen is very excited to add NECTFL 2021 to her professional development experiences!
