I look forward to supporting young people with understanding their options, sharing resources and providing opportunities that will impact their future. Fun fact? I have hiked a 14er (Grey’s Peak) to watch the sunrise. I primarily support all reengagement Specialists in their outreach to students in the Denver and Englewood area.
