Spotlight on Maurisha Jenkins

The spotlight is on Maurisha Jenkins. Maurisha is the Library Technician for the Periodicals Unit. She is the newest member of the Blazer Library Team having been hired in April 2010. She graduated from Kentucky State University in May 2008 with a degree in Biology. During her time as a student at KSU she was very involved with several Land Grant programs centered on youth. She has also worked previously at the Kentucky United Methodist Children’s Home in Versailles, and continues to serve as a mentor for the Children of Greatest Need program.

Maurisha is currently seeking ways to further her education. She is planning to pursue a Master’s in Public Health with a concentration in Maternal and Child Health. When she is not here at Kentucky State University she enjoys spending time with family in Cincinnati and her dog, Putter. She also enjoys traveling and shopping, and wants to revisit Miami in the future. She enjoys cooking, particularly chili and chicken alfredo, and listening to R&B music. We are glad to have Maurisha as part of the Library, and would like to invite you to welcome her as well.
