Sophia grew up in north Washington state and called Whidbey Island, Skagit Valley, and Seattle her home until moving to Portland in 2014 to pursue higher education. She graduated from Portland State University with a bachelor's degree in English and is currently enrolled in the Master of Fine Arts program with a Poetry concentration. Sophia has worked for PSU in many capacities since 2015 both as a student employee and a full-time staff member. Sophia was originally drawn to PSU as an undergraduate student because of the opportunities that an urban campus has to offer like quick walks to a food cart, an abundance of study spots, and simply exploring the city! She hosted a one-hour show each week for KPSU, the on-campus radio station, which also allowed her to attend and review concerts in the Portland area. She looks forward to showing students what makes PSU unique. In her free time, Sophia enjoys writing, finding new coffee shops, karaoke, baking, listening to music/podcasts, and eating all the pizza Portland has to offer.
