Bio
³Ô¹Ï¹ÙÍø ME
Hello! My name is Mariah, and I am the Associate Director of Admissions Recruitment. I am originally from Texas but moved to Pueblo, CO in March 2024. I have been married since 2019 and have two children. I have worked in education since 2016, and I love what I do!
WHY ³Ô¹Ï¹ÙÍø PUEBLO
I was a first-generation college student, so I had to navigate the college-going process by myself. The university I went to did not specialize in my particular situation, so I felt like I was left to my own devices in a lot of ways. ³Ô¹Ï¹ÙÍø is focused on first generation college students and has SO many resources available. This is extremely helpful for our students when navigating all the many intricacies of university life. ³Ô¹Ï¹ÙÍø is built on a well-rounded, wholistic education experience - helping students with their physical, emotional, and academic needs. You belong here!

Not So Fun Facts
- I broke my foot during my first pregnancy, so I was limping around in a boot with a big pregnant belly. So embarrassing!

- I raised my son alone for the first year of his life while my husband was deployed overseas.
