Dr. Jessica Martin, from Laredo, Texas, completed her undergraduate degrees in biology and chemistry at The University of Texas-Pan American. She then taught physics, chemistry, and biology in Laredo for one year before heading to medical school at St. Matthew’s University School of Medicine in Belize. There, she obtained her medical degree as well as a joint Masters in Health Service Administration from St. Joseph’s College of Maine.

After graduation, she returned to her hometown where she began her career as a hospital administrator at Laredo Medical Center and Doctors Hospital of Laredo. She also taught part time in the department of allied health at Laredo Community College and at Texas A&M International University for four years. Dr. Martin has led oncology research through NCI-sponsored grants on cancer disparities as well as cooperative group trials in partnership with The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio's Cancer Therapy and Research Center. Her research includes publications on colorectal cancer and health disparities in South Texas colonias. As Cancer Center director at Doctors Hospital of Laredo, she was instrumental in overseeing the Laredo WINGS program for breast cancer patients, an affiliate of WINGS San Antonio.

She moved to the Rio Grande Valley to join her husband and start a family. She is a mother of three toddlers, a boy and identical twin girls. She enjoys having family and friends over for barbecues and loves being a part of history with the new medical school and residency programs at UTRGV.
