Jessica Keith is a professional lecturer at San Diego State University and as the mother of three littles (ages 4, 8, and 10). When she is not teaching Cross-Cultural Communication, in the Department of Journalism and Media Studies, managing her own tiny humans, or making a snack, she is working on her memoir, “Saying Inshallah with Chutzpah.” Jessica's bluntness combined with vulnerability has grown her audience with publications in The New York Times, Kveller, McSweeney's, Scary Mommy, Uptown News, Sammiches and Psych Meds, PJ Library, Medium, and Blunt Moms. As a freelance writer, she intertwines Jewish culture with Black ties, love, motherhood, mental health, and celebrities.
