Career Center

Back to SBCC

Jan Jackson
Office Manager

I've enjoyed assisting students and faculty in various capacities at Santa Barbara City College for 15 years, and especially enjoy how eclectic my current position is in the Career Center. I am a Santa Barbara native and SBCC graduate. I've been a small business owner for 30 years, headed up many clubs, committees, and large events at SBCC and in the Santa Barbara community. Some of my hobbies include skiing, hosting parties, and hiking the hills and beaches of Santa Barbara with my dog. I especially enjoy helping students with finding jobs, majors and career goals.
