Tell us about yourself.
Born in the PNW as the eldest of three daughters, I’m grateful to be raised by two supportive and loving parents who I look up to as role models. I graduated from the University of Washington (Go Huskies!) with a Bachelor of Arts in Communications and as a proud member of Pi Beta Phi. Following in my mother’s footsteps, I became a flight attendant upon graduation, allowing me to explore new cities and immerse myself in diverse cultures. Although I have gained a love for traveling (Hawaii especially), I have found a deep appreciation for the beautiful PNW that I am lucky to call home.
What do you enjoy doing outside of work?
I’m at my happiest when I’m spending quality time with family and friends—whether it’s playing pickleball with my family, catching up over a glass of wine at a local winery or restaurant with friends, traveling to a new destination (near or far) or enjoying a relaxing boat day on Lake Washington.
What are you most excited for in taking on this new role?
I am excited for the opportunity in being part of something larger than myself and contributing positively to the community I have had the privilege to call home. For the past four years, working with Bellevue Lifestyle magazine has provided me with a profound sense of fulfillment and joy. This role has allowed me to discover a career path where my passion for community impact thrives. I strive to highlight the vibrant essence of the city and support local growth and visibility, connecting our readers and followers to the people, places and businesses that define Bellevue, WA.
