Jessica Hampton, Development Manager

As the development manager for the Honors College, Jessica Hampton coordinates development activities, donor engagement and special events.

Hampton graduated with her B.A. in political science and M.A. in public administration from the University of Arkansas. While attending school, she worked in the Offices of Career Connections, where she found her passion for expanding access to higher education. Hampton received the Benjamin Franklin Lever Tuition Fellowship, allowing her to pursue a graduate degree and gain a new appreciation for the lasting impact scholarship opportunities have on students.

Jessica plans to one day pursue a Ph.D., but for now, she is excited to begin her career in development. Outside the office, Jessica enjoys spending time with her golden retriever, Rusty, trying new restaurants in Northwest Arkansas and taking any opportunity to travel.
