She has a bachelor’s degree in Sociology & Environmental Studies from Whitman College.

Carrie is inspired by the clients Hope Solutions’ serves. In a recent conversation with a resident, she learned about their journey of being unhoused and their incredible gratitude for being able to pay their rent. Carrie is also motivated by our Resident Empowerment Program (REP) leaders who share their personal stories of being homeless, advocate for affordable housing, and empower their neighbors. In her work, Carrie is passionate about connecting people to be a part of Hope Solutions’ success.
