What I Do 

Josie Kennedy works with ambitious students, aiding them in their first steps here at College of Western Idaho (CWI). Working with CWI's One Stop Student Services representatives, she provides information about programs and supports students navigating the admissions process.

About

Kennedy grew up in Nampa, Idaho, and graduated from Idaho Arts Charter School in 2020. As a big fan of the arts, culture, and people, she continued her education at Boise State University to expand these interests. There, she graduated Magna Cum Laude with a bachelor's degree in anthropology and minors in sociology and environmental studies.

Kennedy is deeply committed to supporting diverse student populations and creating a supportive caring culture. She began her journey at CWI as a part of the admissions processing team and now serves as an admissions counselor, enjoying helping students every step of the way.

When not at work, you can find her either in a dance studio, getting coffee, hiking, traveling, or reading a good book. She is also very enthusiastic about random facts and looks forward to learning new things.
