Vicki was born and raised on a large commercial farm in Napa, California. She was able to combine her farm knowledge and love of science when she studied at California State Polytechnical Institute in San Luis Obispo with a major in Dairy Science. She has worked in the SFCC Admissions & Registration office for 20 years. During this time, she had the opportunity to serve students from application to completion and beyond.

Vicki joined the Computing, Math, and Science Division as a Guided Pathway Specialist in 2022. She is passionate about STEM, pathways and dedicated to helping students achieve their goals by meeting them where they are.

When off-campus, she enjoys spending time with her family, gardening and reading. She is proud of her 3 sons and 2 daughters-in-law who attended CCS.

Charles started helping others with math back in middle school when his classmates would ask for help and he decided during high school that he would pursue a career doing so. He graduated from SFCC with an Associate in Mathematics Education and then transferred to Eastern Washington University where he earned a BS in Mathematics and a BAE in Secondary Education with a Mathematics endorsement. In his free time, he enjoys exercising and watching anime and/or funny YouTube videos.

Greg Cripe PhD Applied Mathematics, MS Computer Science, MA Math, BA Math, BM Music Performance

Greg comes to SFCC from Indiana where he studied Tuba and taught scenic design techniques in Opera. He taught math in high school in Swaziland during a stint in the Peace Corps before traveling through the states and ending up in the Northwest.  He still enjoys adventures and hopes you will visit him in the math center during your adventure in your math courses.

After earning a BAE in Secondary Mathematics from Eastern Washington University Beverly decided to travel her father's path into Higher Education and continued to earn an MS in Mathematics.  She has taught college level Mathematics since 1989.  Beverly is active in the Math Department curriculum changes in precollege math. Facilitating Math Across the Curriculum workshops around the country shows her passion for working to improve mathematics education in college.  When she is not teaching, she enjoys traveling anywhere she can.

Jessica joined the Mathematics Department at SFCC in 2013. Jessica’s college journey began in Northern Michigan where she was a Running Start student. Grateful for the opportunity community college afforded her Jessica transferred to Saginaw Valley State University in Michigan where she completed her Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics with a minor in Chemistry.

In 2009 Jessica relocated to the eastern part of Washington where she pursued her passion for teaching mathematics. Jessica earned a Master of Initial Teaching Degree from Gonzaga University in 2010, followed by a Master of Science in Mathematics in 2013. A lifelong learner at her core, Jessica is also nearing completion of her Ph.D. in Math and Science Education at WSU.

Jessica’s passion for teaching mathematics has blossomed over the years as she has gained experience teaching high school, community college, and university students. Jessica has made it a priority to continue to engage herself in professional learning opportunities aimed at creating an equity-focused mathematics classroom environment. Jessica leverages innovative research-backed teaching techniques including inquiry-based learning, outcomes-based assessment, and writing-intensive curriculum development. One of Jessica’s greatest joys is working with aspiring teachers as they work to understand their craft and passion for improving the learning experience for students.

In her free time Jessica likes to adventure in the outdoors with her friends, family, and her two dogs. When she is not on campus you can find her hiking, running, rock or ice climbing, mountaineering, skiing, paddleboarding, swimming, or playing ice hockey.

Jessica looks forward to learning new things with you!

Jennifer Huri joined the Mathematics Department at SFCC in September of 2014. After a year of running start at SFCC (placed and started in Math 98), Jennifer earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics with a minor in Applied Mathematics from the University of Washington. Jennifer then earned her Master of Science degree in Mathematics from Washington State University. While preparing for a PhD program at WSU, an opportunity to teach full-time at Centralia College occurred and was accepted in leu of continuing to work towards a PhD. It was there that Jennifer’s love of teaching mathematics at the community college level was sparked. After Centralia College, an opportunity to teach at Pima Community College in Tucson, AZ arose and furthered the love of community college teaching. Returning to Spokane to continue teaching mathematics at the community college level was a dream come true.

Jennifer loves listening to Audible books, baking, gardening, and spending time at the lake are just a few of her favorite things to do outside teaching. Jennifer also loves spending time with her husband and two kids – there is always an adventure to be had with family.

Jennifer looks forward to meeting and helping students on their mathematical journey.

Jeremy joined the fabulous and amazing SFCC Math faculty in 2016 and has since been working hard to help students grow their math muscles. Jeremy loves to help people grow.

Speaking of growing, Jeremy was born and raised in Spokane, WA and went to Spokane Community College. Jeremy studied under the amazing and wondering Kelly Jahns and won the math department’s Outstanding Mathematics Student Award.

Later on Jeremy graduated university with a double masters: MS in Applied Mathematics from the University of Washington, and MEd in Secondary Education from the Eastern Washington University.

More presently, Jeremy enjoys Data Science with RStudio.cloud, and is currently studying Complex Variables with Applications through MIT OpenCourseWare: https://ocw.mit.edu/

Never.Stop.Growing :)
