Yuki, School Program Director

She/Her

Yuki oversees all school programming with our school partners all over Oregon. She creates and updates school group curriculum and classroom presentations, and oversees adult education for school staff and parents. Since 2012, Yuki has provided school-based services to students and staff. She interned at Ophelia’s Place during her junior and senior years when she began facilitating girls’ empowerment groups and classroom presentations. Yuki then graduated from the Family and Human Services program at the University of Oregon in 2014 and became an OP staff member that September. For almost the last decade Yuki has fallen more in love with the Ophelia’s Place organization and has no plans on stopping doing this work any time soon.

Yuki would tell her 13-year-old self that she is enough, and doesn’t need validation by other people. So often girls are taught that they’re not pretty enough, smart enough, competent enough or qualified enough to do certain things or pursue what matters to them. But ultimately, girls are immensely powerful and perfectly enough and are going to change the world.
