Bio:
I grew up in Yakima, Washington and attended La Salle High School (the other La Salle!), graduating in a very small class of only 42 students. I went on to attend Seattle University, double majoring in both Environmental Studies and Graphic Design. After college I spent one year in a volunteer program called Lasallian Volunteers, and was placed in Chicago, Illinois working at a social justice retreat center called the Br. David Darst Center. After my year of service ended, I landed a job in Washington, DC working in the Development Office of a small school that served at-risk, low-income Latino males. I loved living in DC during that time, but dearly missed the mountains and beauty of the Northwest. My partner and I moved to Portland in the fall of 2019 and quickly fell in love with the city and the surrounding beauty.

I am happy to be a part of Central Catholic and proud to share the wonderful things that are happening within the community!
