About

Hello! My name is Jordan Hartley I come from a small town in southern Indiana called Jasper where I graduated from Jasper High School. I am currently a sophomore at the University of Indianapolis studying Biology with a concentration in Pre-Med and a minor in Chemistry. While in high school I was involved in Track and Field, National Honors Society, Health Occupation Students of America, Students Against Destructive Decisions, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, and Spanish Club. Not only was I very involved with school but I was also very involved in my community and faith. I attended the Notre Dame Leadership Conference, Catholic Heart Work Camp for 4 years, Teens Encounter Christ and Girl scouts for 13 years. In college I am involved in Phi Alpha Epsilon, Catholic Student Association, UIndy for Riley, Biology Club, and intramural volleyball.
