Lori D. Email & Phone Number

My professional mission is to empower learners of all ages to navigate challenges and pursue opportunities for growth in their academic and career journeys. I have had the joy to actualize this mission in various roles and am excited to contribute my skills to innovative and diverse teams. In my current role as Academic Adviser with the Allen Scholars Program at the Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science and Engineering, I have accomplished this through 1:1 meetings and by co-instructing a 10-week college readiness course for a cohort of 50 students. My approach leverages communication, problem-solving, and conflict resolution skills, ensuring every learner can thrive in a nurturing and intellectually stimulating environment.In my previous role as Area Director with Housing and Food Services at the University of Washington, I supervised and provided direct guidance to 3 professional staff members in addressing the operational and wellbeing concerns impacting over 1000 students and staff. While in this role, I developed and adapted trainings for new, current, and returning staff which were delivered in-person and virtually.I have taught English abroad to learners from age 4 to 56, providing self-developed, age-appropriate curriculums at each level. I continue to strengthen skills as an education specialist through completing an Instructional Design Certificate and learning to navigate LMSs independently using online resources.Other interests include art, graphic design, holistic wellness, technology, puzzles, travel, and leadership.
