Jen Carlson is a graduate of New Saint Andrews College and has dedicated her life to hospitality and homemaking. She and her husband, Dr Joe Carlson (Dante scholar and literature lecturer at NSA) were born and raised on the California coast, ran their parsonage Hysa House from which they taught, counseled, mentored, and fed countless bellies. They currently live in Moscow, Idaho with their son, Joseph, where she teaches piano, volunteers with NSA’s recruitment and alumni, leads a Charlie Kirk book club, and continues to mentor and counsel in biblical womanhood, hospitality, and holistic health & recovery from chronic illness. She plans to publish her vignettes on hospitality and recipes from Hysa House once her husband stops stealing all the publishing limelight.
