Why did you choose Daniels

I chose Daniels for its immersive, hands-on approach to learning and its reputation for excellence. As someone actively pivoting careers, I was drawn to the program’s emphasis on experiential education and leadership development. I consistently heard glowing feedback about the faculty’s dedication and the transformative impact of the curriculum. Daniels felt like the right environment to challenge myself, expand my network and gain the guidance I need to navigate this next chapter with confidence and purpose.

Previous Education

BS in information systems management from University of Colorado Denver

Pre-Grad School Experience

I served eight years on active duty in the U.S. Air Force, beginning my career as a radar and airfield systems technician stationed in Germany and Missouri. Later, I transitioned into space operations after relocating to Colorado, where I expanded my technical expertise and strategic leadership in a rapidly evolving domain.

Post Grad School Goal

My goal is to apply the real-world concepts gained through Daniels to a career that supports outdoor recreation and aligns with my values. I’m focused on finding a path that blends purpose, impact and the freedom to explore both professionally and personally.
