Virtual Canonical Visit 2021

The Virtual Canonical Visit of the Superior General of the Religious of the Assumption, together with her General Council is a moment of grace for the Asia Pacific province.

#CalledtoLead: Dr. Jen Teves

“For four years as an undergraduate student at Assumption College San Lorenzo, the principle of ‘women of faith, women of action’ has been ingrained in me such that in every difficult situation life has placed me, I root myself in faith and ask myself: “how might I translate this faith into actions?’Today, I lead a team of 50 researchers scattered across 6 states (and counting). I lead my team with trust, authenticity, courage, and vulnerability. These principles have allowed me to lead my team with our humanity intact.”

Dr. Jennifer “Jen” Paragas Teves is currently the Research Director for Experience Design (XD) at Best Buy Co., Inc., Minnesota. She previously worked as an Experience Design Researcher for Target Corporation, Veritas Technologies, and Honeywell International. Jen has a Doctorate degree in Human Factors Psychology from Wichita State University, Kansas, where she specialized in studying intuitive visualization of information. She worked in the domains of retail, hospitality, automation, aviation, driving, consumer and enterprise software, and usability of physical and digital products. For the past three years, she’s been teaching graduate-level courses in Experience Design as an adjunct professor at Kent State University’s School of Information in Ohio.
