Teen Connections Mentor
My name is Jess Murray, and I am a proud YINZER and adoptee. I work in a few different roles, but most of my professional time is spent as a therapist and professor, and most of my personal time is spent keeping up with my 2 very energetic toddlers.
Why I am part of Teen Connections: I have both personal and professional experience with adoption, and I believe in the healing power of shared lived experiences. While each adoptee has a different story to tell that is unique to them, we are able to learn and grow from each other at all points along our journey. It is my privilege to be a part of this group!
