During high school, Jarvis worked with the National Youth Leadership Council on their Youth Project Team, getting one of the few interviews granted by then Secretary of State Colin Powell while serving as an NYLC Youth Reporter at National Youth Summits.{{cite web|title=Former NYLC Youth Project Team Member Is Finalist on "The Apprentice"|url=http://www.nylc.org/news/former-nylc-youth-project-team-member-finalist-apprentice|publisher=National Youth Leadership Council|access-date=23 November 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120323191154/http://www.nylc.org/news/former-nylc-youth-project-team-member-finalist-apprentice|archive-date=23 March 2012}}
