I have been with Powell's City of Books for 15 years. Currently, I am an Operations Manager and have held this position for about 9 years. I spend much of my time working with school districts throughout Oregon and Washington. I bring students to the store to introduce them to the world of books. I also serve as the community and media contact for our store. Not only am I on the Pearl District Business Association Board but I represent Powell's Books with the Portland Business Alliance.
 
Prior to my life with Powell's, I spent about 25 years with PBS primarily serving as a production manager for television stations in both Los Angeles and Phoenix, Arizona.
