Jessica Pederson

Instructor - History

Mentor Bio:

I live in Utah with my husband and three kids. I graduated from BYU with a degree in history and recently graduated from the University of Alabama with my master's degree in library and information studies. At BYU I focused on U.S. history, particularly pre-Antebellum South, and Greek and Roman history. I think history is more than just facts to memorize and offers important insights on what we are experiencing today. In addition to loving history and learning, I love reading, hiking with my family and traveling. I hope to someday visit all the continents (including Antartica!)
