About Me
I grew up in Fort Collins, Colorado and moved to Grand Junction to attend CMU! I discovered right away that I love living in western Colorado. I earned my bachelor's degree in Spanish with a minor in international studies. I worked a lot in college and I went on two international trips. I studied abroad in Costa Rica and I did a publicity photography project in Nicaragua.
Favorite thing about Grand Junction
The first hike I did in Grand Junction was Mount Garfield for extra credit in my freshman biology class. It is a challenging hike with amazing views of the Colorado National Monument, the Grand Mesa and the entire Grand Valley. I love all of the fruit we grow in western Colorado — especially the peaches and apples. My favorite event is the Palisade Peach Festival in August!

Mount Sneffels is a beautiful 14er mountain only 2 hours south of CMU in Ouray, Colorado. I like to hike and go to the hot springs in the area.
Snow shoeing on the Grand Mesa next to Grand Junction. It is the largest flat-top mountain in the world.
Mount Garfield is a hike with incredible views of the Grand Valley. I love seeing all of the fruit orchards and vineyards in the town of Palisade from above.
