Staff: Arggi Torhaus

Arggi and her family are newer to the Pacific Northwest region but are excited to call it home. Arggi has worked with children, youth, and education for the past 10 years after graduating from University of California, Irvine with a degree in Sociology. During her time in the nonprofit sector, Arggi learned first-hand about the needs of those serving in the nonprofit field as well as obstacles that make the work challenging. As a result, Arggi pursued an MA in Pastoral Care and Counseling at Biola University to care and support those who desire to serve in nonprofits.

Arggi is passionate about justice work, peacemaking, and ensuring everyone receives the care they wish to give. In her free time, you can find Arggi surrounded by greenery, going on a hike, or making a plan to spend time near water with her husband and daughter.
