I oversee integrated marketing, industry relations, community engagement and development for WSU's Everett campus. In addition, I head the WSU Everett strategic plan implementation task force and sit on the university wide student success committee. I strive to use my higher education expertise and broad contacts in the Puget Sound region to support the Links' scholarship efforts, Building STEAM and community work. As a former award-winning multimedia journalist for news outlets that include The Washington Post and The Seattle Times, I also look to work with the Links in promoting important efforts and activities through social media and traditional press.
