Jacqueline spent her growing-up years in Latin America and Thailand, graduating from high school from the International School of Bangkok. When finally coming back to her native country of the US, she recoiled from the American consumer culture and found home in the low rolling hills of eastern West Virginia where she raised two children, became a shepherd, and learned from her neighbors and the land where food comes from. Her career was in the arts, education, and community youth work. In 2009, she brought those skills to facilitating progressive education with students at Goddard College, where she co-developed the Community Education concentration with Dr. David Allen Frisby III.

She is blessed to be a mother and grandmother, sister, auntie, wife, and step-mother in a wonderful family who keep her learning and laughing!
