Seattle Public Schools

Hello! I’m Mitra Vahdati (they/them) and I am grateful to be a member of the Lincoln Counseling Team. I grew up in Southern California and moved to Washington to attend college. If I’m not at Lincoln, I’m probably working on some pottery, reading sci fi, taking an aimless walk or watching a horror movie with friends. I love getting to know students and their families, and I’m looking forward to supporting you all in your journeys through high school (and beyond). The Lynx community is a special one and I’m happy to be here with you all.

I am thrilled to join the Lincoln High School team for the 2023/2024 school year. Over fifteen years, I have had the privilege of first teaching and later serving as an administrator in both private and public schools, with students ranging from preschool to graduate school. Away from school, you can find me baking, playing ukulele, painting, and cherishing quality moments with my husband and our demanding cat. I’m an avid baseball and hockey fan but love to cheer for all of our Seattle teams. I am excited for the year ahead and the opportunity to support and serve our students, staff, and school community.
