Heidi Nichols
Alumni Community Manager
Hi all! My name is Heidi and I am excited to be supporting App Academy’s Alumni community. I previously worked in Alumni Relations for eight years at Harvard University, and most recently with young alumni at Harvard Business School. I can’t wait to get to know each of you and look forward to seeing you at one of our upcoming events.
Jennifer Youngblood
Alumni Career Coach
Hey Y’all! I’m Jennifer and I’ve been career coaching for 15+ years in the bootcamp, higher education, private practice, and outplacement spaces. I’m really looking forward to supporting a/A alum in their next job search. I partner with job seekers through the self discovery and job search process to find well-aligned work. I truly believe aligned work can bring a deep sense of fulfillment and meaning in our lives and love celebrating with seekers when they find work that is aligned with their purpose.
