My background: AAHS Class of ’98, Compliance Coordinator at Kinder Morgan, Inc., a licensed attorney in CO, and 5th generation Colorado Springs resident

Why I shared this photo: These are my best friends at our 20th High School Reunion. (I’m the one in the white blouse). I’m so lucky to have grown up (and now grow old) with these beautiful people.

Craig Mills (back row) is the talented photographer who takes many of our pictures on this website. 

Why I started Kadet Legacy: As a kid, the extraordinary people at Air Academy provided me with a safe place to connect when I needed it most. Today, I see amazing educators doing the same thing for a new generation. I started this organization in honor of those who helped me and in support of the inspirational people continuing to do great things for kids.  

Quirky things about me: I drive a pink 1973 VW bug and have a Caique Parrot named Henry. I love movies from the ‘30’s, music from the ‘70’s, TV shows from the ‘90’s, and tomorrow’s technology. My BFA is in Film and Television Production, so I've brushed off those skills to create most of our videos. 

Ask me how much I love: My job in the natural gas industry and/or the seemingly small but powerful ways nonprofits can change the world for the better.
