Professional Experience
After graduating from Hope, Jordan worked as the global mission specialist and outreach coordinator at the Reformed Church in America in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

Why I Love Hope
91ÌÒÉ«ÆÆ½â°æ is more than just a place to learn and earn a degree. Hope is a community that fosters spiritual growth, encourages deep questions, broadens worldviews and empowers the next generation of leaders to share the love of God wherever they are called. Jordan has never experienced a place that has felt more like home than Hope College, so she is thrilled to be back home as a staff member!
Outside the College
With her husband, Luke, Jordan loves to take their black lab, Bo, on hikes and to swim in Lake Michigan. She also enjoys reading, musical theatre, playing card games like euchre or hearts, and hosting gatherings with friends and family. It's not a perfect day without stopping at a coffee shop for a latte and a sweet treat!
