Jennifer Evans

Jennifer Evans serves as a Lecturer of Nursing and OB Clinical Instructor at Gonzaga University, teaching both lower-division and upper-division nursing students with a focus on foundational skill development and clinical application.

Her educational background includes:

• BSN from Washington State University
• MSN from Western Governors University

Her professional expertise centers on nursing education methodology, particularly in developing students' organizational habits, study techniques, and clinical judgment skills. With extensive hands-on experience in Labor and Delivery, Mother Baby units, and Level 2 NICU settings, she integrates real-world obstetric and neonatal care scenarios into her teaching approach to bridge theoretical knowledge with practical clinical performance.

She instructs core nursing courses including Nursing Perspectives (NURS 100), Growth and Development (NURS 210), Assessing and Promoting Wellness (NURS 314), OB Theory (NURS 351), and OB Clinical Practicum (NURS 352), emphasizing evidence-based practice across maternal-child health domains.

Her teaching philosophy prioritizes cultivating critical thinking abilities through structured clinical applications, with particular attention to high-acuity obstetric and neonatal care environments where rapid clinical judgment is essential.
