What’s good? My name is Kristen Jackson, I was born in Detroit, MI, and I taught middle and high school history in Philadelphia for several years before moving to the bay for grad school. I’m finishing a PhD in education, and while in grad school, I stumbled into ResLife and have really loved supporting young people and especially developing a solid rapport with my staff. A happy staff makes a happy building! I’m a dog mom and my son, Onyx, is my world. He’s a homebody and super anxious but if you ever meet him, prepare to fall in love with his big eyes!
