About Me Publications
Phoebe (she/her) coordinates internal operations from the SCEC HQ front desk, providing critical on-the-ground support to research staff and ensuring seamless collaborative flow with the University of Southern California. She oversees SCEC's physical office spaces, inboxes, calendars, Business Continuity Plan, travel booking and expensing, meeting arrangement, radomes inventory management and shipping logistics, the occasional troubleshooting side-quest, and more. Whatever task is at hand, she's ready to assist!


Now based on Tongva land (so-called Los Angeles, CA), Phoebe spent her first 20 years living in Lenapehoking (so-called Pennsylvania) by way of Kensington, Philadelphia and then Bristol Township. She has 10 years of experience working in the higher ed sphere to provide administrative support to staff, faculty, and underrepresented student populations. She's especially passionate about enhancing the participation of these populations in STEM career fields -- before joining SCEC's Operations team, Phoebe supported SCEC interns as the REU coordinator at East LA Community College's MESA Program. She's so proud to see their names come up as they continue to empower and establish themselves in their respective research fields.
