My name is Michelle Moxley, and I was born and raised in Portland, Oregon. I remained in Portland all throughout my early education, graduating from Liberty High School in 2018.
After graduating high school, I decided to take a gap year to travel before starting my college career. I spent the year backpacking through Guatemala, Thailand, Myanmar, The Kingdom of Eswatini, and South Africa. In the summer of 2019, I decided to extend my gap year and I moved to Friedrichshafen, Germany. I had intended to spend a full year there, but once March 2020 hit, I was sent back to Portland, OR due to the beginning of the COVID 19 pandemic.
In September 2020 I moved up to Seattle and began my higher education journey at Seattle Pacific University. I am a Business major, concentrating in International Business, and am expected to graduate Magna Cum Laude in June 2024.
