Biographical Sketch

Dr. Jacobs is a 2002 graduate of the first PharmD class at the ULM College of Pharmacy.  After graduation, she worked for a year, and then she pursued residency training at the University of Mississippi for Medical Center in Jackson, Mississippi and completed her training in 2004.  She then returned to her alma mater in August 2004 to begin her career in academia at the Shreveport Campus as a clinical assistant professor.  Dr. Jacobs was promoted to Clinical Associate Professor in 2010 and Clinical Professor in 2019.

Dr. Jacobs currently practices in the Family Medicine clinics at University Health- Shreveport and offers an ambulatory care rotation to fourth year pharmacy students.

Dr. Jacobs really enjoys providing career planning assistance to pharmacy students, particularly assistance with the residency application (CVs, interviewing, etc).  She coordinates an elective (Clinical Pharmacy Career Development) designed specifically to help students with this process.

Dr. Jacobs is married to Marlon (a pharmacist at Christus Highland in Shreveport) and enjoys reading, transporting her kids (Reese and Lila) to their many extra-curricular activities, and planning her next family vacation!
