What I do here:
I work in client services for Columbia River Advisors and Summit Tax Services. I am the first face you will see at our Tacoma location. My role at CRA & Summit Tax includes coordinating meeting schedules, speaking regularly with clients, and ensuring that our clients receive prompt service on all their tax and customer service needs. In addition, I assist with various back-office support tasks.   

Why I love my job:
I look forward to what the new day brings, whether that be helping clients or a new project. It is especially easy to love your job when you work with an amazing team of administrative staff and advisors that work together in support of the clients and each other. 

Work History:
Prior to joining the CRA team, I was a student employee at PLU while being a student-athlete.  I worked as an office assistant, in game management, and hospitality services.

Education:
Graduated from Pacific Lutheran University in 2023.

Where I come from:

I was born and raised in Kaneohe, Hawaii on the island of Oahu. 

A Little Personal:
I enjoy spending time with my friends and family, watching sports games, going to the gym, and finding new movies and shows to watch.
