| Introduction | Jennifer is tech savvy journalist and communications professional keen about using the new media as a tool to disseminate information, foster collaboration, and influence positive development outcomes. She is described as one of the next generation of communicators by Georgetown University’s GAIN & Center for Social Impact Communication (CSIC). Between 2009 and 2010, Jennifer worked in Washington, D.C. as a Communications Director via the Atlas Corps Fellowship. In November 2010, she was awarded the LEAP Africa Nigerian Youth Leadership Award for her work as an outstanding Nigerian youth leader. She was also granted the International Reporting Project (IRP) 2013 New Media Fellowship to report on global health and development in Nigeria. A graduate of Mass Communication from the Nigerian Institute of Journalism (NIJ) and Master of Arts from Columbia University, Jennifer believes God created youth for a purpose and thus should not be wasted in frivolities. Her published books include In Days To Come (2004); Preserving My Saltiness (2011); and Half a Loaf & a Bakery (2013). Favourite quote: I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. |
