Retired, Lower Elwha Ed Director/COO/ & ECE Instructor

Tracey began her career at 14 working across the ages as a swimming instructor at William Shore Pool working with infants-elders. She then added experiences in working with young children in the Birth to Three Program and Educare Center at Peninsula College, First Step with B-3 Children with Special Needs Program, DSHS Developmental Disabilities Case Manager Birth to Elders, Early Childhood Education Instructor at Peninsula College, Program Coordinator for Work First/Basic Skills with the Tribal Nations across Olympic Peninsula for Peninsula College, Education Director for Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe supporting Head Start, Child Care, PASD Students, and College Students and even Elders Program.  She retired from Lower Elwha after 15 years in 2018.

Tracey has always loved learning new information. She earned her AA from Peninsula College in 1974, CDA from Bank Street College, Master’s in Human Development from Pacific Oaks College attending classes in Bellevue and Pasadena (where she took a course from Magda Gerber) in 1992 before online courses were available and College Counseling Advising Certificate from Empower ED UCLA Extension in 2015. This course online with students from around the world was truly a learning experience.

Tracey is currently building her brain by enhancing her computer skills in WordPress and MailChimp. Her creative skills have involved glass fusing, bead making, beading, quilting, and sewing.  Tracey has had experiences learning across all ages – each of her many contacts have taught her how important each stage and age in Human Development is to develop competent successful humans.
