Jennifer Wages

Education Program Manager

Jennifer joined the Vasculitis Foundation as Education Program Manager in the fall of 2022. She utilizes her background in education and healthcare to guide patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals in the diagnosis and management of vasculitis.

Jennifer believes in the power of small, united efforts to advance change. While her focus is on disseminating vital information about research developments in the areas of prevention, diagnosis and treatment of vasculitis to a wide audience, her motivation is knowing that her efforts will benefit individual patients and their families.

Jennifer has a Bachelor of Arts degree in English Teaching from Brigham Young University and is also a Licensed Practical Nurse. In her spare time, you will find Jennifer reading, hiking and kayaking in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley, and fighting a losing battle against dust and dog hair.
