Jazmyn is a passion and purpose driven community leader committed to revealing the unlocked potential of the next generation and empowering women and girls to lead. Since the age of 14, she has claimed the role as a young philanthropist awarded for her commitment to leading in numerous organizations around her hometown of St. Louis, Missouri and beyond.
She credits her community, and more specifically, her Girl Scout Leadership Experience with influencing her personal and professional development in high school, while still leaving an impact on her growth today.

For this reason, she continually looks for opportunities to mentor and teach today’s youth through organizations and communities that influenced her. She has gone from an active member to an active mentor with Girl Scout of the USA, dedicating her time to the growth and success of the Eastern Missouri council. A member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated, Jazmyn made history as the first collegiate member elected to serve two terms in the highest ranked regional position representing over 200 collegiate members on the National Executive Board for four years.
