JENNA CROSBY

Jenna returned to her roots at Wasatch Academy in 2024 as a Relief Dorm Parent — an experience that revealed how much she loves working with the younger students. A longtime campus resident and alumna, she brings both institutional memory and passion for cultivating meaningful adult–student relationships in dorm life.

As Head Dorm Faculty for the 8th and 9th-grade boys, Jenna is committed to creating a residential environment that blends structure, safety, and authentic joy. She believes that play, at the right times, is essential for this age group, and she actively fosters connections among students through shared activities, communal time, and guided peer interaction. She also teaches life skills—everything from safe cooking to conflict resolution—and serves as a trusted mentor in navigating adolescent relationships.

Before her return to campus life, Jenna held a high-pressure leadership role at Kate Spade in the Bay Area. Though successful in that world, she now embraces the slower rhythms and deeper connections of Wasatch, where she feels her work aligns with her values. In her downtime, Jenna can be found reading, decorating spaces, or hiking the hills around campus with her dog.
