Amanda Jordan
Amanda has been a member of the Grant counseling team since 2013. Much like the late Whitney Houston, Amanda understands that the children are our future. Before entering the counseling profession, she spent five years working in Nonprofit Development and Fundraising for Save the Children and the Coalition for Clean Air. Amanda is guided by the belief that education is the building block of social change. The best part of her job is connecting with students by offering a listening ear and nurturing students’ strengths to help them reach their goals. She is continuously inspired and motivated by her students every day. Amanda grew up on the beaches of southern New Jersey, but finds that the adventurous Pacific Northwest lifestyle suits her family much better. Still, before calling Portland home in 2011, Amanda had to taste the pizza. When she is not at work, Amanda enjoys testing out cookbooks, exploring various neighborhoods of Portland, and spending time with her husband and two rugrats.”
