Meet the Staff

Jenny has been with SAAVI since 2010 and served as Director for 13 years. With extensive experience in program management and development, domestic violence and sexual assault prevention work, direct advocacy and as a USU alum, she excels in caring for students who have experienced harm in the Logan community.

Outside of work, Jenny enjoys spending time with her family travelling, playing games, and eating good food! She loves animals and dreams of retiring and starting a cat sanctuary. In the meantime, she cares for the feral and stray cats in her neighborhood.

Erika has been a SAAVI advocate for three years, strengthening SAAVI’s relationships with law enforcement and local resources. She is a federally Credentialed Advocate that allows her to provide legal advice on protective orders and stalking injunctions. With a bachelor’s degree in Constitutional Studies and master’s in Social Work from USU, she provides a wealth of knowledge and support for the USU community.

In her free time, Erika loves to try new restaurants in the valley with friends and even started a monthly foodie club. You can also find her creating new Asian-inspired dishes at home, including her famous Thai soup and curry. Butter, however, is her favorite food!

Ashleigh has seven years of campus advocacy experience, building programming and leading outreach efforts on campuses in Indiana and Pennsylvania. She studied Social Policy with a focus on health education at the University of Pennsylvania and design at Ball State University, where she was a Peer Educator with the Center for Survivor Support.

Outside of work, Ashleigh continues to feed her creativity by finding new furniture and art pieces for her 100-year-old house, photographing the canyon and reading psychological thrillers. She hopes to join Jenny in making a cat sanctuary a reality!
