I am currently serving as the interim director of the Office of Learner Placement and Housing. In this role, I strive to leverage my extensive experience in educational administration and student services to enhance the overall student experience at OHSU, ensuring that learners have access to the resources and support they need to thrive in their academic environments.

As Interim Director, my goal is to implement several initiatives aimed at improving learner placement processes internally at OHSU while working collaboratively with academic programs to create a supportive community that prioritizes academic success and well-being. With a strong background in project management and operations in higher education, I continue to strive to improve efficiencies in learner engagement and building housing solutions through an enterprise-wide learner placement software system.

Outside of my professional responsibilities, I am actively involved in running an A2 micro dairy farm and creamery, believing in the importance of supporting the local community whild placing value on the importance of knowing what actually goes into the food we eat, where it comes from, and if there is a holistic management approach supporting it.
