  Collette Bishop Administrative  Assistant ph 206-285-1271 fx 206-285-9479  
Hello! Mine is the voice you hear when you call down to Local 27. Among other things, I monitor the reception desk, run the store, act as Assistant Editor of the Third Rail, and assist with Seattle’s Bravest Charity. I grew up in Indiana and graduated as a literature major from Indiana University. After college, I spent a year in London, England with a ministry organization which reached out to Middle Eastern refugees/immigrants. Back in Indiana, I held a social service position as a job coach for individuals with disabilities. After visiting the Northwest on vacation, my husband and I became enamored with its beauty and subsequently decided to pick up and move to Seattle January of 2010. We now consider Seattle home and plan to stay indefinitely!
