RECRUITMENT

Howdy!

I am the recruiter for TYAN. In this role, I seek out organizations that would be a good fit for our Community Partners and Cohorts. I meet with these organizations and usher them through the entry process of becoming a TYAN Community Partner. It is really fulfilling work to help organizations gain more skills to serve their youth and communities. I love working with so many different kinds of organizations, it gives me a real scope of all the ways that people are working with youth. It is very inspiring.

I lived in Jefferson, Oregon and in Ocala, Florida for my elementary, middle, and high school years. I claim Oregon as my home though. I went to Southern Oregon University for my bachelor’s degree. I studied Sociology and loved it. Then I went to Texas A & M for my master’s degree. I attended the Bush School of Government and Public Service where I obtained a Master of Public Service. I studied public administration and Women, Peace, and Security.

A few fun facts about me: I am an Aquarius, have 2 cats, and a husband, watch way too many scary movies, and I am starting to try and keep plants for the first time. It is going well so far…but we will see!
