Chrissy Hoefgen, Education Outreach Coordinator
Since arriving in the Palouse and joining PCEI in 2020, Chrissy has flourished as an enthusiast for experiential outdoor learning, building vibrant connections with young minds. Her passion for education burns bright, fueled by a B.S. in Elementary Education from the University of Idaho and an ongoing M.Ed. in Curriculum and Instruction, where she specializes in igniting curiosity through inquiry-based science education.
Before finding her home in the Palouse, Chrissy traded the rolling hills of Wisconsin for the fertile fields of Northwestern Washington, where she worked in education and agriculture-related endeavors.
Beyond teaching in the classroom and out in the fields, you can find her diligently diving into schoolwork, experimenting in the kitchen, pursuing creative projects, or likely, biking around town and exploring mountains through backpacking and cross-country skiing.
