About Neil Neil’s Priorities Contact + Donate Who is Behind Neil?
I am a second-generation Coloradan. Raised in Denver, my four siblings and I were all educated in the Denver Public Schools , as were our parents before us. They instilled in us the importance of education to realize our dreams. So today we are all college graduates working in our chosen professions.
After graduating from high school, I received my BA and MS in Geology at CU Boulder and became an award-winning research geologist. I have lived in Boulder for decades. My husband and I raised our daughter here; she is a proud graduate of BVSD schools (K-12). I navigated the challenges of parenthood through my child’s experiences with bullying, harassment, and mental well-being; this is why I continue to fight to make BVSD the best it can be.
