Getting to Know....

Have you met the OTHER Emily? Not Emily G but Emily P-- for Pool. She is relatively new in our ward! Born in Seattle, WA, she hails from a family of four children. She has two brothers and one sister. She graduated from Western Washington University and went on to obtain her Master's Degree from City University in School Counseling. Emily currently serves as the high school counselor at Lummi Nation School, and has been there in various positions for six years. From what I hear (not from her), they wouldn't know what to do without her there.

 (Here is the beautiful Emily with her niece)

Emily loves to travel. Some of her favorite places have been to Boston, the Caribbean, and Japan. She loves learning and doing and enjoys being outdoors. A favorite food is Chips and Salsa. A guilty pleasure is Masterpiece Theatre, of which she has a little collection (can we say Movie Night at Emily's?).

She has served as a life guard at Girl's Camp, as the Education Counselor in Relief Society, as Institute Council President, and is currently team teaching our cute (and energetic) CTR 4 class in primary.

One thing I love about Emily is her spontaneity and sense of adventure. Just recently, she took a quick road trip down to Redding, CA with some buddies  just so they could fully experience the solar eclipse.

Please go out of your way to say HELLO and get to know Emily. You will be so glad you did!
