Wang Center for Global Education

Pat has worked at PLU for 10 years, joining the Wang Center team when it was formed in 2002. At the Wang Center, her primary focus is with the application process, course registration, budgeting, billing, grading and transcripts. She finds the PLU students and supporting their study abroad interests both a joy and inspiration. Prior to joining PLU, she worked for 20 years with the Providence health care system and for 5 years with the State of Alaska environmental office during Trans Alaska Oil Pipeline construction. Raised in South Dakota, the Northwest has become her home. Outside of work, her interests are central to family; homemaking, reading, gardening, the company of her husband, two married children, three grandchildren, and two dogs.
