Jenn spent a year studying at Saint Mary’s University before attending Saint Francis Xavier University, where she worked as a tour guide and in the admissions office. Jenn then attended Dalhousie Law School, while juggling a busy work schedule as a Caseload Planner for the Victorian Order of Nurses. She also spent a semester at the Dalhousie Legal Aid Clinic. Jenn graduated with her law degree in 2008.
Upon completing her studies, Jenn promptly returned to Pictou County, eagerly accepting an articling opportunity with MacGillivray Law Office.
