Hello! My name is Katie Hashimoto (she/her), and I’m an associate admissions counselor at UWS. I joined UWS because of my passion for higher education and my desire to support students on their journey into higher ed. My goal is to provide you with the resources and guidance you need to make the best decision for yourself!
I was born in Okinawa and raised on Oahu, Hawai’i, where I lived for most of my life before moving to the PNW in 2018 for college. I graduated from Portland State University and have been here ever since! While I miss my family, friends, and the food back home, I’ve grown to love the PNW—especially its beautiful changing seasons.
When I’m not working with students, I enjoy playing the piano, crafting with clay, and sewing and I’m always eager to learn something new! I look forward to connecting with you and being a part of your journey into higher education!
