Dean of Admission

Melody is a native of Federal Way, WA and currently resides in Bonney Lake, WA. She loves the community atmosphere that you immediately feel at Pacific Lutheran University. “Everyone can find their niche here. Whether you’re doing undergraduate research in Rieke, playing ultimate Frisbee on Foss Field, or volunteering at the local middle school, it’s a great place to find a sense of community on and off campus.”

Are you worried about the admission process? Melody was a first generation college student and knows that the journey to college can be one filled with mixed emotions – from excitement to anxiety – and lots of questions. She tries to make sure that the journey to college and the admission experience is as seamless as possible.
