Jaci Ward, Ph.D.

In 2004, Jaci embarked on a paradigm shift from the public sector to self-employment, after many years of service in higher education.

The leap of faith required a move across the country to a new city and new profession with a new marriage was made possible by her obvious desire to live in the same locale as husband John V. Richardson and his adult sons.

The icing on the cake is the benefit of living less than a day's drive from her hometown of Jackson, MS. Although this may not seem like a big deal for some, Jaci had tired of cross-country air travel to Jackson, especially following 9/11.
