Trisha (she/her) joined Meridian in 2023, drawn to the school’s mission of educating students’ minds and hearts. She gained an interest in education while serving as a Teaching Assistant for American Sign Language at the University of Nevada, Reno. After receiving a B.A. in English from UNR, she worked as a substitute teacher and the Advanced Photography teacher at an independent high school. When a position as a Communications Associate became available, Trisha was excited to transition into a role supporting the school’s administration. Trisha spent four years working on the Advancement teams of schools in Northern Nevada, where she gained experience in the communications, digital media marketing, and development needs of independent education. She is now happy to call Seattle home and is proud to be a member of The Meridian School community. When she is not photographing school events during the week, she often photographs local dance companies and concerts on the weekends.
