Jessica Henry Named August’s Holmes Scholar of the Month

Jessica Henry
Jessica Henry, Ohio University Holmes Scholar

Congratulations to August Holmes Scholar of the Month Jessica Henry!

Henry is a doctoral candidate at Ohio University. Her research interests are mental health and rehabilitation.

Henry’s nominator had this to say about her: “A rehabilitation counselor by trade, it is Jessica’s life goal to improve the quality of life for everyone that she comes into contact with. Jessica epitomizes strength and resilience and leads by example.”

Recent accomplishments of Henry’s include accepting an instructor position at Penn State University. She also is currently drafting her dissertation examining the “Superwoman Schema” and its effect on women with multiple sclerosis (MS). The study aims to shed light on the strength and resilience of women with MS and how said strength manifests itself throughout their lives.

Jessica, we appreciate your hard work, and you truly exemplify the principles held by the Holmes Scholars Program. We salute you!
