Jen Kopec
Jen is a native of the southwest suburbs and a first-generation Polish American. She teaches middle school Spanish and social studies, and she leans into hobbies your grandmother would endorse: crochet, crafting, bingo, and bunco. She’s a summer enthusiast who loves time with family and friends by the pool or beach, and a passionate traveler always seeking new people, cultures, and cuisines.
At the tender age of 39, Jen discovered she was actually a drama kid! She completed Levels 1–4 at Westside, took additional improv classes and workshops, and even dabbled in storytelling. She’s grateful for the warm Westside community—and can’t wait to see where improv takes her next!
