About Me

I was born and raised in the Pacific Northwest and have never left! I started my college journey at Whatcom Community College, then transferred to Western and earned both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees here. I had a rich and meaningful experience as a student at Western, and it is a dream come true to work for the institution that played such an important role in shaping my learning. Here at Western, I work to extend outreach efforts and recruit students from diverse backgrounds and identities. I have spent my entire career in higher education, and I love supporting students through the admissions process. I know how difficult navigating the higher education system can be, and I am always available to help answer questions.

I like to spend my time outside of work walking along the Bellingham waterfront, enjoying food or coffee in the Historic Fairhaven district, and reading a good book on cozy rainy days.
