I have five wonderful dogs, two hilarious younger brothers, a dedicated older sister, hard working parents, and a beautiful girlfriend.
In my free time I love to read, going to the gym, hang out with friends and family and play video games, specifically Mario Kart. I also love to travel and attend music festivals and concerts.
I love mountain biking in the summer and skiing in the winter. Spending time with my son is my source of joy.
I'm a born and raised Colorado Native and I am frequently amazed by how many new authentic experiences and beautiful places this state holds for me! Endless adventure here.
I seek to share my knowledge of the broad range of opportunities to learn and grow in the ski industry so students can work towards a sustainable and engaging career in the mountains.
I love connecting with nature whether it be rock climbing, hiking, getting in water, or just sitting still in the woods. There is so much value and many lessons to be taken from time spent outside, with yourself or others.
Eager to connect with students, support their academic success, help them find their place and see how learning can empower them.
Leadville has this surreal way of connecting you with yourself through nature and community.

Welcome to Colorado Mountain College and its eleven campus locations sprinkled across a spectacular region of Colorado’s central Rocky Mountains.
Our vision
Colorado Mountain College aspires to serve and elevate the economic, social, cultural, and environmental vitality of its beautiful Rocky Mountain region by welcoming all learners through its doors, delivering highly relevant education and training, and serving as a trusted partner for strategic collaboration and innovation.
The college
CMC is a comprehensive, public, open-access dual-mission institution offering 136 academic programs ranging from bachelor’s and associate degrees, specialized certificates, and a wide range of online, non-credit and lifelong learning courses, as well as extensive concurrent enrollment opportunities in close partnership with neighboring school districts.
Over 15,000 students attend CMC annually, and 40% of degree-seeking students earn a certificate or degree every year. The college’s Latinx enrollment has doubled in six years to 29%, making CMC a federally-designated Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI). CMC courses are highly personal and many are experiential by design, each with a maximum registration of 25 students.
Colorado Mountain College campuses are located in Aspen, Carbondale, Breckenridge, Dillon, Steamboat Springs, downtown Glenwood Springs, Glenwood Springs-Spring Valley, Leadville, Rifle, the Vail Valley, and Salida. Of these locations, three are “traditional” residential—Spring Valley, Leadville, and Steamboat Springs; students in Breckenridge (and coming soon – in Edwards, Spring Valley and Steamboat Spring) have access to college-owned apartment-style housing. CMC campuses are close-knit communities, on average serving between 1,000 – 2,000 students.
The majority of the college’s financial support comes from local property taxes, not tuition or state revenues. Consequently, CMC is uniquely positioned to be entrepreneurial, nimble, mission-focused, and responsive to community and workforce needs. The college’s Central Services office, which provides administrative support to all campus locations, is located in historic downtown Glenwood Springs, the town from which CMC originally launched in 1965.
