Participant Profile for Jennifer Thomlison Last Updated: May 12, 2009
I am from Lake Villa, Illinois United States of America and I am 36 years old. I’ve been skydiving for 10 years and have made 1000+ skydives during that time. My professional occupation is Cardiac Catheterization Technologist.
My Biography: I was on JFTC 2005 and had a great experience! The bonding that occurred between myself and the other women was one that I will never forget! I met up with a few of them on the Texas State Record 2007 and 100-way camp in Perris in May 2009 and can't wait to see them again in September!
My Hobbies & Other Interests: Skydiving and AFF instructor at http://www.skydivemidwest.com/ Scuba Diving, Running, Biking, Triathlons
Why I feel it’s important to participate in JFTC: My aunt just died from breast cancer that metastasized to the brain. My grandmother had breast cancer and had a double mastectomy. I have a coworker who recently completed chemotherapy for her breast cancer. I am a radiology technologist that used to do mammograms. I have seen too many women who had breast cancer walk through the door hoping their mammogram was clean, only to be told it was not. We need to find a cure to this horrible disease before it affects my mother, more of my friends, and the other women in this world.
