    Before moving back to the PNW where I grew up, I completed my undergraduate and graduate degrees at Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff, AZ. That's where I learned how to pull a great shot of espresso, cook a near perfect pizza, and shovel too many feet of snow.

    I've been in the Penguin Nation since January of 2024. Building the Basic Needs Hub has been a labor of love that I am so proud of! Getting to know our students and their families is my favorite part of my job. I take great pride in supporting students in accessing basic needs resources and encouraging them to advocate for themselves and others.

    When I'm not at work, I love to cook, go camping with my wife and friends, and play with my pets in the garden. Come by and say hi!
