Pathways Advisor (Pre-nursing & BSN)
- A.A. Pueblo Community College
- B.A. Chicano Studies, Metropolitan State University of Denver
“Online student” translates to me as a person who is driven to not allow obstacles, hardships, distance or any number of other situations stop them from pursuing their educational goals. I just want to be someone who helps that person! I’m a non-traditional, first generation, Chicana graduate and I can only say that because I had individuals who gave me support, guidance and motivation throughout my educational pursuit. It made all the difference for me and I’d like the opportunity to try do the same for online students.
Bilingual Pathways Advisor (Business & Information Technology)
- B.A. Human Development & Family Studies, Colorado State University
I was born and raised in Mexico. My family and I moved to the States when I was 16 years old.
High school was very challenging for me because I was in a school where there were almost no Latinos and it was a big language and culture barrier. Thanks to one of my teacher's support I was able to graduate high school.
I moved to Colorado right after graduation and have been here ever since. I knew I wanted to go to college, but I was not sure how to start or where to go. My sister-in-law told me to go to FRCC and ask for information about how to start. I went to the Boulder County Campus in Longmont where I learned what out-of-state tuition was and how expensive it is. I waited for about three years to become an in-state student and worked to save money to go back to school. After becoming in-state, I enrolled at FRCC.
My journey at FRCC was longer than I planned, but I was able to apply and be accepted to Colorado State University-Fort Collins. After changing my major four times, I found the career that I love and I am passionate about it. Now I am back where everything started and I am excited to share my journey with others. To let students and families know that even when they think they can't reach their goals or there are setbacks in their life, I am here to support them.

Director of Pathways Advising

- M.A. Leadership in Student Affairs in Higher Education, University of Colorado at Colorado Springs
I love serving online students because I was one! As a first-generation, non-traditional college student, I really struggled taking traditional campus-based classes. I had a work schedule that made it difficult for me to attend classes at certain times, and when I could attend I was so tired from working late that I was not engaged with the material. Once I discovered online and hybrid coursework it gave me the flexibility I needed to continue to work and maintain other obligations while working towards my degrees. I am so happy to be able to support students like me who have busy lives and need the flexibility our online classes provide.
