Jackie has spent the last 30+ years working in association management (the last almost 8 years at UCA) – her roles have been on the event side – registration, meeting planning, exhibit hall sales/service and event operations management.

The best part of her job is seeing all the hard work come together on-site at the live events. Meeting people at the registration desk, seeing the exhibit hall rise almost overnight, hearing the buzz of amazing networking between attendees and exhibitors – all feeding her extrovert tendencies! Jackie enjoys making connections between people – whether that be at UCA, between attendee and exhibitors, or in her personal life.

Favorite Charity: Maddog Strong Foundation 
Educate Teens on Organ Donation

Our mission is to help our younger generation redefine organ donation advocacy. We believe that by sharing real, factual information with teens and young adults they will make an educated and informed decision about organ and tissue donation. Whether we bring that information to them in classrooms, through campus clubs and events, as guest speakers, through social media, podcasts, docuseries or at sporting events, youth clubs and community events, the Maddog Strong Foundation is committed to building awareness within the youth community of the need for life-saving organ and tissue donation.
