I'm in my second year as the College Recruitment Officer, and it's gratifying to see so many of the people I helped get started here in classes and moving toward brighter futures. I'm a true education advocate, having earned a bachelor's degree in English from the University of New Mexico and a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing from the University of Utah. I've also worked in public relations and as a newspaper reporter and a librarian.

Bye 'til next year

It only seems like yesterday our campus was occupied by more than 160 youthful souls for College for Kids. It's been fun getting to know the kids and being greeted with a big smile when I called them by name. It's also been fun seeing them learn and progress -- in the case of Primary Music literally from one note to many. The big kids used their time here to investigate a crime scene, learn American Sign Language, design fashions and perfect their self-defense skills, among many other things. Today parents, grandparents and siblings were invited to join in, including dancing around the May pole in Primary Dance, seen here.
