Jennifer is a two time UM graduate (BA '98, JD '03) and feels extremely lucky to call Missoula her home so she and Monte can cheer on the Griz year round! She also spends lots of time cheering on her family, which includes her husband, Chris (her partner in creating The Great Monte Mystery), and the next generation of Montana fans: son, Cameron and daughter, Mallory. Go Griz! |
