Ms. Brown received bachelor’s degrees in political science and communications at the University of Washington before earning a law degree at Gonzaga University School of Law. After briefly serving as a law clerk at Snohomish County Superior Court in Everett, Washington, she was named associate attorney at the firm of Gardner Bond Trabolsi & St. Louis in Seattle.

We are extremely pleased to have her as a Board member,” said Interim Scholarship Foundation President and CEO Mary Dwyer.
