• Program Manager - UNM Entrepreneurial Challenge Program

  • Sep 2014 - Jul 2020

  I lead the UNM Entrepreneurial Challenge Program, a statewide startup planning program operated out of the Dean's Office at the Anderson School of Management. We prepare aspiring entrepreneurs in a year-round effort to develop scalable collegiate startup ventures from UNM, NMSU, and CNM into new commercial and technology-based startup ventures. Value is added to this process thru the support and expertise from academic, business, laboratory, and government stakeholders in New Mexico. Over the past year, I have transformed the program from a business plan competition to a startup development program, and am developing a Startup Support Fund for incremental seed funding for our most prepared startup ventures. My purpose is achieving our vision to generate economic development through home-grown startup ventures in our state. My mission is developing the next generation of business owners in New Mexico. My passion is developing leaders that build ladders, not just climb them. Raised in Anchorage, Alaska and an alumnus of the University of New Mexico, I am currently pursuing my Master's in Public Administration at UNM with a focus on Transformational Leadership. At the end of the day, I leave work at work, so I can enjoy my family, trail running with my dogs, mountain ultramarathons, jiu jitsu, and camping in the mountains.
