Charles Harrell Johnson, III 04 May 2023
After graduation, Taylor students are well-prepared to move into a wide range of careers, including the nonprofit sector. Fueled with a passion for telling stories of redemption and hope, Jenny Shaffer ’08 chose to build her future at Operation Mobilization (OM) , an international missions organization with workers in 147 countries.
Shaffer has worked at OM for 15 years, starting as a writer and photographer. Now the Director of Global Creative Networks, she provides oversight to major projects and strategic creative decisions. Her team includes communication creative roles, including graphic designers, writers, photographers, and videographers. With a treasure trove of experiences of seeing ministry around the world, from Ireland to Indonesia, she has a strong foundation for her work.
“I’m in charge of coordinating large group projects,” she said. “Some aspects of my job involve project management, but I also develop various campaign strategies with other communication leadership staff members.”
Because of their on-the-ground presence in so many countries, OM teams are often able to be first responders in times of crisis. During the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, OM teams quickly worked to distribute food packages, provide transportation from border areas, find temporary shelter options, and develop network systems that enable believers to help those in need.
In March 2022, Shaffer visited the bordering countries of Poland, Romania, and Moldova. Her team interviewed dozens of Ukrainians and OM workers to produce powerful videos about OM's relief efforts. These videos raise awareness about the plight of Ukrainian refugees and how OM is showing the love of Christ by meeting their needs. She also traveled to Ukraine in July to interview pastors and OM workers there.
“Many that we talked to described how they had seen the evangelical church become a place of refuge for others,” she said. “As people fled and arrived in new cities, they would be directed to the churches for help. It was beautiful to see and hear how God is at work in something so ugly as war.”
To make the Ukraine relief videos, Shaffer had to develop a broad communication plan for various video editors and writers. She attributed her current skills to Taylor’s academic preparation.
“I appreciated Taylor’s academic diversity,” she said. “I was exposed to a variety of art and media platforms, which I see playing out in my current role at OM. Because of my rich education in Creative Writing with a New Media (now Multimedia Journalism) focus, I can walk alongside my creatives and coach them.”
As a Taylor student, Shaffer completed an internship at another missions organization where she was a part of a creative multimedia team, giving her a closeup view of communicating those messages.
Shaffer was strongly influenced by Taylor’s dedication to serving the Lord. She learned that community can thrive despite great personal differences, something that she’s put into practice many times over the years at a multi-national workplace.
“Taylor’s focus on communal worship through shared chapel and campus Bible studies grew my faith from an individualistic view of Christianity to a ‘we-focused’ perspective,” Shaffer said. “Following Christ goes deeper than witnessing; it’s about making disciples as well.”
Shaffer encourages students who are interested in video or media storytelling to always be looking for new ways to share their message.
“Take an extra class just because you’re interested,” she said. “Foster ‘cross-pollination,’ or interdisciplinary studies. College should lead you to different career paths that require a diverse set of skills, and I think that Taylor prepares students for the next ‘steppingstone’ in serving God.”
Taylor University provides pathways to many different communication careers. Whether your goal is to be a graphic designer, an English teacher, or a technical writer, you will be equipped to carry out God’s ministry of reconciliation around the world. Start your journey now by scheduling a campus visit .
Taylor University’s English and Communication programs offer students an enriched education in literature and professional communication. English classes teach writing techniques and characteristics specific to genres of fiction, poetry, and creative nonfiction. Communication majors will become proficient at clear communication and target audience messaging. With a 95% or greater career placement rate, both the English and Communication Departments excel at creating connections between students and businesses across the country.
Before joining the faculty at Hampshire, Caoimhe (pronounced kee-va ) Harlock taught at Duke University and the University of Tennessee Knoxville, and at the community college level. She’s offered classes in creative and academic writing and a handful of literary seminars on topics such as women in horror. At Hampshire, her focus will be courses in fiction, where students of all experience levels can hone their craft in an inclusive and supportive workshop space. “My hope is that we can build a vibrant community of creative writers here who will share some really exciting and challenging work with the world,” Harlock says. “I’d love to offer some creative comics and graphic novel courses as well, for any students who are interested in trying their hand at that medium. I’ll also be offering seminar courses on American literature and its intersection with trans studies, feminist theory, queer theory, genre fiction, witchcraft and folk magic, and other topics.” Harlock has a Ph.D. in English from Duke University, with a certificate in gender, sexuality, and feminist studies. She received an M.F.A. in creative writing from the University of Tennessee Knoxville and a B.A. from the University of Texas Austin, where she double-majored in English and philosophy. Have you been in any other professions that had an impact on how you teach and learn? Before I found my way into education and started seeing some success as a writer, I worked a string of fairly diverse jobs: on an assembly line in a bleach factory, graveyard shift at a steam-and-flame factory, and ghostwriting books on bizarre topics — caring for Labradoodle puppies and growing succulents, for example. I’d like to think that I took away from all these diverse jobs an ability to listen to the people I’m in community with, to empathically understand their goals and fears and passions, and to be responsive to them in a way that helps them feel understood. Bringing those skills into the classroom is part of what has helped me foster the kind of inclusive and individually tailored learning environment that has made teaching so rewarding.
Fundamentally, I’m passionate about stories — writing them, sharing them, helping others find and tell their own stories. That’s the thing that first made language a lifesaving force for me as a kid, and it’s the thing that keeps me excited about writing even now.
What have you published?
I’ve published a lot of short stories and comics with various magazines and online publications. Some of the work I’m proudest of that’s currently out in the public is my story “Floodland,” published in the great San Francisco queer literary journal Foglifter , and my comic “Mothers,” published in Honey Literary . I’ve also got quite a bit of forthcoming work that I’m very excited about, chiefly my debut novel, which I’m in the final steps of editing, tentatively titled Take Up the Serpent . I’m also talking with a few publishers about putting together a book of comics, and I have plans to publish a nonfiction book of my academic research on American literature’s historical use of tropes of magic and monstrosity to represent gender-variant subjects. So, lots of beans in the hopper at the moment! What are you passionate about when it comes to this work? Fundamentally, I’m passionate about stories — writing them, sharing them, helping others find and tell their own stories. That’s the thing that first made language a lifesaving force for me as a kid, and it’s the thing that keeps me excited about writing even now. Teaching has been a great expression of this passion because so much of what we cover in the classroom comes back to stories: stories we tell about how the world works and should work, how the mind works, how people work, how art works. It’s deeply gratifying to introduce students to these stories, help them explore where they agree and disagree, help them identify what ignites their own interests and passions, and then work with them as they turn those passions into stories of their own. What are you looking forward to at Hampshire? Getting to work with Hampshire students. In just the short time I spent with them during my campus visit, it was apparent that Hampshire attracts a special sort of soul: eager, curious, invested in not just learning but also using that learning to make a better world. As an educator, I couldn’t ask for a better situation. I’m especially looking forward to the kinds of working relationships that we’ll get to develop over the long term as I help guide students through Hampshire’s curricular model and see them develop their own independent projects. I’m eager to help these students get their stories out into the world in whatever way makes sense for them as individuals, and I just know they’re going to blow me away with their creativity and passion. How do you hope to engage with our curricular model? Hampshire’s unique curricular model was one of the things that appealed to me most. Even when working at other institutions, I’ve always tried to develop courses with topics that intersect with urgent questions and challenges facing students, to allow students a great deal of freedom in developing projects for those classes, and to replace traditional grades with narrative feedback to the greatest extent possible. Now that I’m here at a place that actively supports my efforts to do all those things, I couldn’t be more excited. I’m hoping to offer courses in which we can have fun and do kooky things with art, but that will also go beyond teaching students the fundamentals of literary craft and analysis. I want my classes to help them discover the ways those skills can aid us in understanding the uncertain and often-perilous character of the world we live in right now, and even prepare us to engage with that world in a way that leaves it a little bit better off. I can’t think of a better place than Hampshire to do that.
