Jenna Van Bosch is the 2022-2023 co-chair of the Student Academy of Audiology State Ambassadors (SA) Program. Previously, she served as the North Carolina State Ambassador for the 2021-2022 year and is excited for the opportunity to continue growing the program while connecting with students and professionals from across the country. She hopes to facilitate inter-state communication in a supportive and collaborative environment with the wealth of resources provided by the Student Academy of Audiology. In particular, by motivating State Ambassadors and chapters to partake in legislative initiatives, she aims to raise public awareness for the field of audiology at the local, state, and national level.
