Caitlin joined the Office of Public Affairs and Communications in July 2015. She was born and raised in Tucson, Arizona, and is a graduate of Occidental College in Los Angeles, California, where she received her bachelor’s degree in Urban and Environmental Policy. During college, Caitlin was the creative director for a student-run literary magazine, worked with several community organizing groups, and spent some time overseas—first working in Ireland for an educational development nonprofit, and then in South Africa where she studied multiculturalism and social change.
Prior to working at Lewis & Clark, Caitlin was the program coordinator at a regional renewable energy advocacy nonprofit, where she provided support for the editorial and design side of the organization’s strategic communications and management, among many other things.
When Caitlin is not working, she can be found cooking, baking (she has made two wedding cakes), reading, or hanging with her two cats (Louis and Greg). She loves watching the Blazers, and runs a small but mighty NCAA March Madness pool.
