Event, Marketing, and Content Coordinator

Boone, Iowa native Jessica Andersen has spent much of her career as a Customer Experience Specialist, but she always knew that her life was meant for something more.
 
Jessica grew up within the foster care system and survived many years of trauma and abuse, but she didn't allow those challenges to defeat her; instead, she used them as empowerment to change the world. Jessica began her career with The Set Me Free Project as an Educator, where she empowered youth with tools to recognize their intrinsic worth and safely navigate life’s challenges. Over time, she has continued to grow within the organization, embracing new roles and responsibilities.

Today, as the Event, Marketing, and Content Coordinator, Jessica brings The Set Me Free Project’s mission to life through dynamic events, impactful marketing, and engaging content that amplifies the brand’s message and reach.
 
Along with her passion for providing prevention education to end human trafficking, Jessica is also a full-time mom. As a mother, she discovered that raising a child takes an entire village, which can be said to end human trafficking.  With each person receiving human trafficking prevention education, the village becomes bigger, and the world becomes safer for our children.
 
When not educating and leading her team of Iowa Educators, you can find Jessica sipping on an iced coffee while reading or watching a movie from her extensive DVD collection. However, her daughter is her greatest joy in life, and no book or movie could compare to spending time with her.
