Bio
Kelly Richardson, MPE
I give Jahnai my highest recommendation. Some attributes that come to mind when I think of Jahnai are that she is professional while not taking herself too seriously. She is compassionate about others, is extremely dedicated, and is able to juggle many projects while still being an exceptional role model and mentor. Her sense of humor is enlightening and unique; one that is adept to make gloomy days turn into even brighter days. Hughes is eminently approachable and goes out of her way to engage and build positive rapport with each student. All things considered, I could go enduringly on and on about Jahnai; however, these are the main things that remarkably stood out to me.
