Helping to organize this year’s Involvement Fair is Maggie Pence, Northern’s new career services coordinator. Pence is an Aberdeen native and graduate of Central High School, though she spent three years living in South Korea, teaching English and studying Korean culture.

Now, Pence is happy to be back in Aberdeen – and at Northern.

“After spending most of my professional life away from home, I am excited to return to the Aberdeen area and join the NSU campus community,” Pence said. “Having the opportunity to serve NSU students and work with local businesses is truly an honor. I look forward to sharing my experiences with the goal of helping NSU students navigate their own career journey.”
