Ask Me Anything

This blog is called JustAskJess in hopes that you will ask me questions that I can help answer for you! I’m not collecting contact information, so my answer will be on the blog in a new post. I hope that creates a safe space for you and all involved.




    Who Is Jess?

    I am a lawyer in Oklahoma who practices school law and teaches school law as an adjunct professor. My specialty is helping solve problems. And while I have spent my work days over the past 17 years helping public school administrators, school board members, and leaders navigate their school legal matters, I found myself wanting to share more. With you!
