| About | Jennifer Rebecca (Miller) Crozier was born on November 16, 1973, to Roger and Loretta (Pedersen) Miller in Des Moines, Iowa. She attended school in Dunlap, Logan, and graduated from Missouri Valley High School in 1992. While in high school, Jen was a member of the National Honor Society. She earned her Bachelor's degree in biology from the University of Nebraska. Jen married Jeremy Crozier on June 1, 2002, and they lived in Persia. The couple was blessed with a daughter, Grace. Jen was employed at the University of Nebraska Medical Center. Her love and devotion to the Section of General Surgery was valued and appreciated by her colleagues. She was promoted to General Surgery Residency Coordinator where she excelled in managing the educational requirements of surgeons in residency training. Jen's qualities as an inspirational leader were recognized in September of 2008, when Jennifer received the Chancellor's Gold 'U' award, a prestige given annually to a very small number of top-notch employees at the University. Jennifer was awarded $1000 by WOWT (Channel 6 and First National Bank) in their Pay It Forward campaign in 2008. She used the money to raise additional money in order to walk in the Susan G Komen breast cancer 3-Day walk in Phoenix with her cousins.

Jennifer enjoyed reading, spending time with her daughter and family, gardening, and drawing. She also enjoyed playing the piano and listening to music as well as scrapbooking.
