Jenna Maher
Program Manager
School of Medicine
1. Please introduce yourself and describe your role at UMB.
My name is Jenna Maher, and I have the privilege of currently completing my first term on the Staff Senate. I work as a Program Manager with the Department of Pharmacology and Physiology.
2. Why are you interested in serving on the Staff Senate?
I serve as co-chair of the Policy and Legislation Committee, where I’ve worked with fellow senators to revamp and clarify the Staff Senate handbook. Our goal is to make the handbook a more useful resource for both new and current senators—by organizing historical context around committees, updating language, and making the information more accessible and actionable.
3. What do you hope to accomplish during your term?
I’m excited about the opportunity to continue supporting our community through the Staff Senate or in any other way I can be a resource.
4. Describe your hobbies and interests outside of work.
I enjoy spending time outdoors and exploring Maryland's beautiful parks.
