Shelley Dougherty
Shelley Dougherty, our Admissions Counselor, has been a member of
the College Excel team since July of 2005.
We feel very
fortunate to have Shelley as part of our team and feel immense gratitude
for her contributions to our program. Simply put, without Shelley's
enthusiasm and unique ability to articulate our philosophy, College
Excel would not be the same. Shelley's warm, yet professional manner
is perfect for recruiting potential referral sources and making
clients feel safe and heard.
Shelley first
got to know Jeannie Crowell at NorthStar 13 years ago, where Jeannie
was Director of Student Life and Shelley was a student. After Shelley
graduated from the NorthStar program, she stayed on to help out
in the admissions department. From NorthStar she went to work at
Mount Bachelor Academy as a mentor. Seeking more education in the
area of young adult and adolescent treatment, Shelley applied to
and was accepted to Linfield College in Oregon where she majored
in psychology and minored in business.
Shelley returned
to Bend in 1998 where she began her illustrious career as a shoe
model. She also spent her time working in Bend's trendiest restaurants
and for Patagonia's flagship store, Pandora's Backpack.
In 2005, Jeannie
Crowell sought Shelley out to find out about mentoring a young woman.
This conversation initiated what has become a terrific business
relationship for us.
Shelley is
a wonderful resource for both young adults and their parents who
are considering the College Excel program. She speaks from a place
of experience and with true compassion and understanding.
Sadly, Shelley
lost her longtime canine companion, Brandy this month. Our hearts
are with you, Shelley.
