Collaboration and compassion are at the heart of how Jessica Reese approaches her work as manager for the Center for Intercultural Engagement. With 25 years of experience in hospitality, business development, office management, wellness, and food security, Reese tries to approach new challenges with humility and a desire to learn. She holds a BA in public relations from Westminster College where she also played four years of varsity volleyball for the Titans.
Reese was raised in Huron, Ohio on the shores of Lake Erie, but moved to Oberlin in 2020 with her husband David, daughters Mae and Eliza, and bull mastiff Oshie to be a part of the Oberlin community. When she is not at work, you might find her in the garden, at the beach, or eating spicy food at ThiNi Thai.
