our recent graduate
Kylee has been -very- busy recently, stepping up to the plate to cover for the Volunteer Coordinator’s position vacated recently by Kristen Cooley. Along the way, she graduated from Columbia College, with a degree in Finance, and is justifiably proud to be the first in her family to graduate from college.
Way to go Kylee! Kylee will soon start classes toward a Master’s degree in Human Services. Not to worry, she’s not leaving... She says: "I have found the job I have been looking for and have no intentions of leaving anytime soon."
Kylee was born and raised in California. But before you say .. not another one from California .. she recently went back to California for a visit and found herself missing the mountains, Puget Sound, and the great people of Washington. Moving to Washington in 1999 with her love of hiking and camping, she is a true Washingtonian now.
Kylee served in the Navy for 6 years, leaving as a flight engineer in 2002. She says: "I loved the job but it did not transfer into civilian work."
While raising her kids and going to college, Kylee has also been very involved in the Boys and Girls Club and Head Start, at both the state and national level. She is passionate about being a part of the community in which she lives. We sincerely hope that she will remain with Beach Watchers for many years to come.
