In 2006 and 2007, Jessica Volpe, a

Valley Roundtable to serve as its Student Representative. As part
of her student representative responsibilities, Jessica assisted
the Roundtable with the operation of its Annual Supply Chain Symposiums
in both 2006 and 2007. She was also selected and sponsored by the
Roundtable to attend CSCMP's Annual Global Conferences in both San
Antonio and Philadelphia, where she represented the Delaware Valley
Roundtable.
In addition to her active involvement
with CSCMP, Jessica already has a long list of leadership accomplishments
to her record:

Jessica held a Transportation Co-op position with
Wyeth Pharmaceuticals in Collegeville, PA during the Spring and
Summer of 2007. At the conclusion of her Co-op she returned to State
College to complete her studies and assumed a part-time position
with Penn State's Center for Supply Chain Research. In this capacity,
Jessica coordinates and prepares special events hosted by the Center,
as well as assists graduate students and professors in research
projects by compiling data and narrowing subject fields.
Jessica will complete her B.S. in Supply Chain and
