About Jeanette Moll-
Jeanette Moll has a wide range of experiences – both professional and personal – which has prepared her to serve our state.
Jeanette
was born in Rock Island, Ill to Kathleen (Ryan) and Arthur Verdoorn.
After graduating from Brunswick (Ohio) High School where she met her
future husband Gary, Jeanette attended the University of Notre Dame.
After
an internship in Washington, D.C. at the U.S. Department of Treasury,
where she earned an Award for Achievement in Government Service,
Jeanette returned to Notre Dame. Jeanette married Gary and earned a
degree in Government and the family moved back to Washington, D.C. where
Jeanette began work in the U.S. General Accounting Office.
In
1989, Jeanette took advantage of a unique opportunity to help establish
the Washington, D.C. office of Ducks Unlimited, Inc. While working for
Ducks Unlimited, Jeanette dealt with wetlands-related legislation and
also helped coordinate President George H.W. Bush’s first major
environmental policy speech.
Washington,
D.C., however, was no place to raise her growing family – which now
included two daughters – Cassie and Kendra, so Jeanette and Gary moved
the family back to Ohio. They settled in New Concord, Ohio and Jeanette
set out to earn her Juris Doctorate from The Ohio State University.
For
three years, Jeanette juggled her duties as a mother, a job as a law
clerk for Common Pleas Judge David A. Ellwood, and commuting to Ohio
State. In 1996, she graduated from Ohio State and passed the Ohio Bar
Examination and joined the Guernsey County Court of Common Pleas as a
Magistrate and Mediator.
Jeanette
sat on the bench for ten years, until her announcement that she had
decided to run for Congress. As a magistrate, Jeanette saw the pain and
sadness of broken homes, broken marriages, and – worst of all – broken
children. After much time spent in prayer, she and her husband Gary
realized that they had a moral obligation to do something –anything – to
help ease the suffering of these children.
Despite
the fact that Jeanette and Gary’s two daughters were already going into
high school, they decided to adopt. First, they adopted two brothers
and later welcomed the brothers’ little sister. Cassie, and Kendra are
now college graduates. Meanwhile, Jeanette and Gary are dedicated to the
triumphs and trials of parenting the special needs of Bradley, Aaron,
and Aleigha who are 15, 14, and 10.
Since leaving the bench, Jeanette has opened a private law practice in Zanesville, Ohio.
