Jenna Gilliam
Major: Masters of Community & Regional Planning (MCRP)
Hometown: Des Moines, IA
Undergraduate Degree: Bachelor of Science in Community & Regional Planning (BSCRP) from Iowa State University in December 2021
Research interests: My research interests include, but are not limited to; environmental planning, sustainable development, civic engagement, land use planning and policy, climate action planning, and comprehensive (long-term) planning.
Plans for the future: I either plan to work as an urban planner for my hometown, Des Moines, Iowa, whether that be in the public sector (for the city government itself) or the private sector (working at a local planning firm). I would also like to get involved in the planning process and/or implementation of the City of Des Moines’ Climate Action and Adaptation Plan.
Although I haven’t done much traveling abroad, I really enjoy meeting new people and learning about city planning efforts around the world!
