Jessica Mendoza is a recent Stanford University graduate with an undergraduate degree in American Studies and a Master's degree in Social Sciences in Education.  Her natural athletic ability has garnered numerous awards over the years. Mendoza's accomplishments and recognition are truly impressive, and include an Olympic gold medal as a member of the 2004 U.S.A. women's softball team.

The impassioned and energetic Mendoza hails from Camarillo, California, and is eager to put her academic training to work and to become involved in education policy.  She always tries to "[do] both life and softball at 100% because with the right passion they incorporate each other."

Mendoza often attends international softball clinics in Third World countries and also sits on the Board of Trustees for the Women's Sports Foundation. For more information, please visit www.jmendoza.com
