Hello!

I teach Honors 100 and Honors 101 and manage the Highline Honors Program. The Honors Program provides students in transfer, professional-technical, and BAS pathways with opportunities to transform their college-level classes into Honors courses through research projects, class presentations, internships, and service-learning projects. During this transformation, students learn and apply the skills for successfully transferring to 4-year colleges/universities or transitioning to their career fields.

Students who successfully complete all of the requirements of their Honors pathway may qualify for a merit tuition scholarship in their final quarter at Highline.

I also work closely with Teri Balkenende, who teaches Honors 299 and advises the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society advisor, on Honors Poster Sessions and PTK service events.

I invite you click on the following link to learn more about the Honors Program and Phi Theta Kappa. You're also welcome to stop by during my office hours or email if you have questions about the Honors Program. I'm here and happy to help.
