How do I help clients Live a Richer Life®?
As the early careers recruiter, I find the best talent and bring them to Brighton Jones. I enjoy building relationships with candidates, helping find the best role for them and championing them through the recruiting process. I also facilitate our internship program, which is an opportunity for students to gain skills and experience by interning at Brighton Jones. Besides candidates, I work with universities, professors, student clubs, and other organizations to ensure that Brighton Jones is a top employer in new graduates’ minds.

How do I align my time and money with my values and passions to Live a Richer Life®?
Every day, I try to live out my values of connection, fun, and wellbeing. I enjoy traveling to explore new places, cultures, and cuisines. I especially love returning to Hawaii to see my family, friends, and dog, Mika. We adopted her from the Hawaiian Humane Society, so I have a soft spot for rescuing animals. I enjoy volunteering at animal shelters and other organizations close to me. In Seattle, you can find me hanging out with my friends, whether trying a new restaurant, going on a weekend road trip, or lounging at home. In my free time, I usually work on scrapbooking, reading a new book, walking around Green Lake, listening to music, a new audiobook, or a podcast.
