Jennifer Geller

Eugene 4-J School Board Member

Jennifer Geller's motivation to serve in elected office is found in her belief that the health of Oregon's future depends on our ability to provide excellent educational opportunities for all students. Elected to the Eugene School Board in 2009, Jennifer - an active community volunteer and mother of two daughters - brings a rich background to the table. Originally an education attorney in the Washington State Attorney General's Office, Jennifer returned to her home state of Oregon where she has spent countless hours as a citizen advocate with Stand for Children.

Jennifer currently teaches at the University of Oregon Teaching and Learning Center, providing support services for low-income, first generation college students. Appointed to Governor Kulongoski's Taskforce on Comprehensive Revenue Restructuring in 2008, Jennifer has an abiding interest in policy development to both improve Oregon's economy and stabilize our revenue system.
