Current Position

In my role as Intern Program Manager, I have the opportunity to recruit, collaborate with IT departments to select ideal talent, mentor, and develop interns in IT. Since I started as an IT intern myself, I love that I can now give back to the program to show my appreciation.

Deciding to work for Weyerhaeuser was a no-brainer for me. It is one of the top companies in the Northwest and its focus on sustainability, community, and fostering growth within made it a clear choice.

Helping them find the right resources, develop new skills, and potentially find a full time career within Weyerhaeuser are just a few of the areas that bring satisfaction to my job on a daily basis.
