Prior to her marriage, Mayor Jackson studied Business Management and Horsemanship at Virginia Intermont College. Upon moving to Utah, she studied History at Brigham Young University. Before being elected mayor, she worked as an escrow officer at Utah First Title.

With a love for the people and community spirit of Eagle Mountain, Mayor Jackson feels she has the strengths needed to do a great job as mayor.
