Statement Of Purpose: Whatcom Community College

Though the utmost care and attention to my administrative duties, I would love to help WCC create opportunities for student growth and facilitate a diverse academic environment, which pushes students and staff toward excellence. I have recently graduated from Gonzaga University in Spokane, WA, but I was also born and raised in Whatcom County and I would like to bring my academic and professional skills back to my local community. Moreover, my prior experience at Spokane Community College has shown me the positive and lasting impact a Community College can have
