Academic and Career Advisor

I appreciate being of service to others. I believe advising is about quality not quantity, the quality in time, relation, and information. 

A Greener through and through, I received my Bachelor of Arts degree from Evergreen and worked for five years as an Educational Advisor for the TRIO Upward Bound Shelton Program, helping first-generation and low-income high school students realize the value of higher education. Prior to that, as an Evergreen student, I served as a Student Success Coach with Upward Bound programs. 

I hold a Master of Public Administration from The Evergreen State College, as well as a Master of Education with an emphasis in Athletics from the University of Washington's Center for Leadership in Athletics, where I interned as a Graduate Assistant with Saint Martin’s University Athletics. 

I am of Ashanti descent from Kumasi, Ghana, and have called Washington home since 2010. I am also a former student-athlete who played collegiate soccer right here at Evergreen.
