University of Colorado Denver

Hi there!  My name is Adam Blair, and I am currently a sophomore at the University of Colorado at Denver.  Originally from Southern California, I've lived in Colorado for most of my life.

I am pursuing a degree in film, as well as one in philosophy.  But I like to tell people that I'm majoring in "Story," because I hope to become a professional screenwriter one day.

My name is Annslee Merlo and I moved to Golden, Colorado from California just before my freshman year at Evergreen High School.  In December of 2012 I will graduate from the University of Colorado Denver with a major in public health and minor in philosophy.

I intend to pursue my passion for and dedication to underserved communities by obtaining a dual masters degree in public health and nursing.  My desire is to work in health program development and community health education.

My name is Marietta Reese and I am a sophomore in the Urban Community Teacher Education Program at the University of Colorado Denver.  I am an elementary education major with an emphasis on teaching English language learners.

I am currently working as a tutor in the Denver Public schools.  When I graduate, I hope to continue as an elementary school teacher in DPS or another urban school district.  I plan to spend my summers overseas teaching English as a second language to children as well as adults.  I can't wait to have a classroom of my own where I can teach and learn from children every day!

My name is Stephanie Schrab and I am from Centennial, Colorado.

I am currently majoring in Public Health.  I plan to complete the dual Master of Public Health/Doctor of Veterinary Medicine program at Colorado State University in Fort Collins and become a large animal veterinarian.  I chose public health as my undergraduate major because I am interested in the issue of the spread of diseases between animals and humans and hope to do further research in this area while in the UHL program at the University of Colorado Denver.
