Bio
Before joining BCD, I spent most of my career in corporate environments. I am excited to join BCD and bring my marketing, fundraising and event planning experience from my volunteer work with organizations such as Habitat for Humanity. When not working, I enjoy spending time with my family (supporting lots of youth soccer, basketball and baseball teams), reading books, running, skiing and doing yoga. In the summer, many a weekend I can be found garage sale shopping for pieces to refurbish with a new coat of paint.

Bio
I have been working in the accounting field for the last 26 years. After graduating from the University of Colorado in 1990, I moved to California to work for a large oil and gas company, Chevron. I then found myself moving back to Colorado in 1995 and worked with Meridian Oil, KPMG, Johns Manville, and finally as an independent accountant before joining BCD.

I love Colorado with its beautiful sunsets, weather, mountains, and many outdoor activities. I have two teenage boys who are very active in sports, so I spend a lot of time at various sporting events. I have volunteered for a local football organization and league and currently am on the board of the Booster Club at our local high school.

My career started in Television, working for a small News/Production company on Capitol Hill. During my 5-year experience I worked in various roles; editing tape, running camera, audio and teleprompters, handling satellite uplinks/downlinks, tape roll-ins and live shots. I participated in multiple studio productions, satellite media tours and covered numerous hearings. I also worked with E! Channel, Inside Edition, CNN and several government agencies. In 2000 I decided that I needed a change and transitioned into the IT world. I worked in the corporate sector as a Systems/Network Administrator for the last 18 years with the Richard Petty Driving Experience, Strategic Power Systems, Inc. and Cimtec Automation. I recently relocated to the area, leaving the East Coast and corporate world behind to join the amazing team here at BCD in beautiful Boulder, Colorado!

In my free time I really enjoy exploring the great outdoors; I’m very passionate about mountain biking and look forward to riding all the amazing trails that Colorado has to offer. I also enjoy movies, traveling, skiing, bowling, golf, tennis and soccer.

Bio
After having every job imaginable, from being a galley assistant on a long-range sport fishing boat in San Diego to being an Intervention Specialist at Longmont High School, I took time off to be home with my daughter for 15 years. Now I’m back to work part time at the BCD front desk, which I love.

My favorite thing is being on or by the water. I collect shells from every beach I go to. I love cheering on my daughter’s basketball and soccer games at Niwot High School and I love being with my animals. I love pizza, polka dots and the color blue, and I love to read the news in the morning with my coffee.
