Jensen lived in Pittsburgh, PA, her entire life until moving to Philadelphia to study at Temple University for undergrad. 

She discovered the field of podiatry from a family friend and additionally from pre-professional health studies at Temple. Podiatry offers the opportunity to specialize in such an essential body part and the various subspecialties, which was attractive to her!

In talking to Jensen, she thinks that PPMA can support other students like Jensen, by advocating for podiatry students to be current professionals in the field. 

Furthermore, to recruit more podiatry students, she states, "We must educate prospective students in the area, as many need to be made aware of the opportunities that come with becoming a podiatrist."

PPMA looks forward to working with Jensen during her time at TUSPM!
