In the summer of 2023, Jenna worked as an intern at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, where they conducted DraMS Titan simulant experiments under flight-like conditions to calibrate scientific instrumentation for the Dragonfly Mission. Jenna spent the summer of their junior year at Caltech-JPL constraining planetary impact pressures using experimentally shocked analog meteorites, after a gap-year spent as a temporary research contractor at MIT constraining Titan's age with numerical modeling for the Dragonfly Mission and participating in former astronaut Jeff Hoffman's Martian Analog Missions. On campus, Jenna works as a lifeguard and practices with the Shotokan Karate club. She has a working knowledge of German. Jenna's goal upon graduation is to gain experience at an international space agency and enter into a graduate program for planetary science.
