WHITNEY GRI Broker/Owner CCIM Owner/ Principal Broker 541.969.9539/Cell 541.278.4444 “The college as a whole gives me the tools and freedom to innovatively create and change programming here that benefi ts student success.” Austin points out that most days, you probably won’t fi nd him in his offi ce. He’s out doing what he loves and getting paid for it. Point, match, GAME! BMCC! JENNIFER PETERSON What’s better than doing what you love and getting paid for it? Sharing that love and knowledge with your students. And, a really good lesson nursing students, as well as any student can learn from Jennifer? Time management! Jennifer can manage a daily schedule like no other we’ve known. Jennifer graduated from BMCC’s Nursing Program. She has also taught aerobics here in the past. Her kids attended, and graduated from BMCC. And now, she’s full-time faculty with BMCC’s Nursing Program while she continues to work occasional shifts for St. Anthony Hospital as Nursing Supervisor. She has worked as a nurse at St. Anthony’s for more than 20 years in seemingly every department including Labor and Delivery, Emergency, Trauma, Emergency Preparedness, Day Surgery, PACU and has served a supervisory or management role for many of her professional years.

But for those of us who already know her, Jennifer doesn’t just work. She also fi nds time to exercise (she loves distance cycling, in particular), stay active in her church, hunt, garden, can veggies and fruits and be an emotional rock for the adoring men in her life, her husband Chris and their three awesome sons. Jennifer really knows how to use every breathing moment of her day to its best result. So, those nursing students who are benefi tting from her many years of experience as a nurse, they are also seeing some pretty amazing modeling about how to keep a balance between work and personal time. 37 SE Dorion Pendleton, OR 97801 (541) 276-0021 www.bluecc.edu (541) 276-1260 PO Box 100 Pendleton, OR 97801 Fax (541) 276-6749 www.coldwellbankerwhitney.com cb@coldwellbankerwhitney.com
