Jessica Carlson

As a career coach in higher education, I thrive on helping students and professionals navigate their unique career journeys. My professional path has been shaped by over two decades in education, from teaching secondary English in diverse classrooms to coaching future educators as an adjunct faculty member at Purdue University Fort Wayne since 2016. Throughout my career, I’ve honed a diverse skill set, including delivering engaging presentations, integrating technology into learning environments, and fostering collaboration within teams. My experience extends beyond the classroom, encompassing social media marketing, content creation, data analysis, and communications management. As a National Board Certified Teacher, I bring a deep commitment to excellence in education and a proven ability to connect with individuals from all walks of life. I’m also passionate about driving change, advocating for education policy at both local and state levels to create better opportunities for students and educators alike. Whether guiding students toward meaningful careers or collaborating with colleagues to solve complex challenges, I’m motivated by a dedication to lifelong learning, adaptability, and making a positive impact.
