About Westin
I grew up in Columbus, Indiana, and stayed in the Hoosier state until I left for my mission in 2013. I served in three different missions: Brazil, Goiania; Salt Lake City, Utah; and finished my service in the Salt Lake City East Mission. After returning home from my mission, I studied at BYU-Idaho, earning my Bachelor’s Degree in Business Management; Finance. I then pursued two separate graduate programs and received a Master’s Degree in Higher Education Administration from the University of Alabama—ROLL TIDE—and a Master’s Degree in Data Analytics from Western Governors University. My first position within Higher Education was working for BYU-Pathway Worldwide as a Projects and Events manager, where I helped the communication team with project completion and planning its institutional events. Wanting to return to BYU-Idaho, I accepted a job as a Campus Tour Coordinator in the Admissions Office and now serve as the Operations Manager. I have worked for the university now for three years.
My hobbies include whatever my family is doing. I have young kids and an active family, and I feel like we are always at a dance recital or a soccer game. A more specific hobby of mine is I love making food! I have developed a passion for making food and trying new recipes. Whether it is grilling, smoking, baking, or roasting, I am always trying something different and love it when it is a success.
