She is also an active member of the Lafayette Parish Master Gardeners and participates in the School Garden Initiative. The focus of this program is to promote passion, knowledge, and participation amongst school children for gardening and growing food, in an effort to promote healthier lifestyle choices and stave off food insecurity. Through community research in Acadiana, food insecurity is a growing issue and is something she is quite passionate in addressing.

Jamie and her husband, Dustin, live in Broussard with their two daughters, Beckett and Finley, and their three mini goldendoodles, Charlie (AKA ChewChew, for good reason), Pascal (AKA Bubsie), and Teddy. Jamie lives an active lifestyle, mostly with tennis and running. She sporadically sprinkles in some cycling, yoga and Pilates classes. Jamie often jokes that she has more hobbies than she has time. Her diverse interests include sewing, quilting, knitting, crocheting, cooking, reading, gardening, and canning her crops. Her favorite time spent is with her family, showing her daughters the world, introducing them to an active lifestyle and healthy life choices. One of the family favorites is paddleboarding together and exploring the waterways of the Florida Panhandle and 30A area.
