About Jackson Matteo M.

I earned my bachelor\'s from the University of Virginia in 2016, my master\'s in Higher Education from the University of Virginia in 2017, and am currently working on my final Capstone to earn my Doctorate in Higher Education from the University of Virginia. I am a former captain of the University of Virginia football team and had the opportunity to serve as a graduate assistant football coach for three years from 20••••20. The lessons that I learned from the game, mentorship, and adversity have shaped my interests, leadership, and drive to work in athletics and education.
