I grew up in Seattle and earned my BA in Accounting from Seattle Pacific University, laying the foundation for a career that has spanned over 20 years. Much of my professional experience was rooted in the commercial fishing industry, where I managed complex accounting operations in a fast-paced, ever-evolving environment. Most recently, I worked in public accounting, honing my skills across a range of client needs before bringing my expertise to Green Lake Jewelry Works.
After spending years living in cities like Spokane, Austin, Phoenix, and Green Bay, I’m thrilled to be back in the Pacific Northwest - closer to the mountains, the ocean, and the vibrant local community I call home. At Green Lake, I enjoy contributing to a creative team in a setting where craft and detail are highly valued. Outside of work, I love running, spending time outdoors, and being with my family and friends. One of my favorite local spots is Green Lake Park - it holds special meaning for me, as it’s where my husband and I went on our very first date nearly three decades ago.
