Scholarship Coordinator
Deliberative - Discipline - Harmony - Consistency - Responsibility
I assumed the role of Scholarship Coordinator in June 2026. In this capacity, I am responsible for the management of all Northwest Foundation scholarships, and I provide a central point of coordination between major gift officers, students, Financial Assistance staff, and campus scholarship committees. Prior to joining the University Advancement team, I served ten years as the Financial Literacy Coordinator for Northwest’s TRIO Student Support Services program. Both roles provided me with an outlet for my passion to connect students with resources to obtain an education.
I am a native Missourian who became a Bearcat when my husband, Bill, began employment as a Northwest music professor in 1999. We have two adult daughters, Sarah and Leah, and a son-in-law, Garrett. Our daughters both attended Northwest’s Horace Mann Laboratory School, and Leah is a 2026 Northwest alumna. I enjoy spending time with family, attending the music performances of my trumpet-playing husband and his students, and pampering our dog, Daisy.
