Ms. DeJesso attended Fairleigh Dickinson University where she earned her BA in Psychology and minored in Elementary Education. She resided in North Plainfield for 22 years, went to East End Elementary School and graduated from our very own North Plainfield High School. 

Ms. DeJesso has worked with the NP Recreation Department since 2009 in many different roles. She began as a camp counselor while attending the HS, has site supervised for all of our recreation sports, was our secretary, volunteered many hours at our events, she is our Summer Camp Director, became our Assistant Director in June of 2021, and is now our new Co-Director. She has volunteered many hours to our program and hopes to bring back the Pride in our little NP Community. Ms. DeJesso has managed multiple successful daycare centers as an Assistant Director and Director, and has dedicated most of her free time teaching as a Colorguard and Winterguard Instructor for multiple school districts. 

Ms. DeJesso is passionate about the children in our town and strives for their growth and success. Those who have been apart of her Summer Camp Program know that her door is always open and they will always be treated as if they were one of her own kids. During the summer she provides an extensive recreational and educational program for our children and it is her favorite time of the year. The memories, connections, and growth that she builds with our youth is her favorite part of her job!
