About Jennifer »

My name's Jennifer Whitaker, but you can call me Jen if you'd like. I have always lived in a medium-sized town called Warsaw in northern Indiana. I graduated from high school in 2006, and I now attend college online, so I spend a lot of time on my computer. I'm working on earning my Bachelor's in Criminal Justice and I hope to either be a security professional for NASCAR or a juvenile probation officer. I also work full time doing medical billing only until I get my degree and find a career though. Once I finish school, I hope to move to North Carolina because it's hard to find a good job in the criminal justice field around this area, as well as my severe dislike for the weather irregularity in Indiana. A few years ago, I really got into NASCAR, and now I would say I'm a pretty die-hard fan. I never miss a race if I can help it, although I wish I could actually be going to the race every weekend not just watching it on TV. I love to watch Dale Earnhardt Jr. and root him on every weekend he's racing, I told everyone he'd get a win again soon enough, he's been running great! I also watch a little football, mainly just the Colts. I'm a big fan because they represent where I come from and they've been doing great as of late. Hopefully another chance at the Superbowl soon!
