Evans for Re-2

I am a lifelong member of the Garfield Re-2 community, a proud graduate of Rifle High School, and dedicated advocate for public education. 

For 19 years, I was a teacher in the Garfield Re-2 School District, building strong relationships with students, families, and colleagues. For the last 9 years I worked for the State of Colorado as the Gifted Resource Consultant for the Northwest region of Colorado. Today, I continue to support local educators through my work with BOCES, collaborating to strengthen programs and expand opportunities for all learners.

I am a passionate supporter of equitable access to education, and committed to ensuring that every student — from those needing extra support to those performing above grade level — have the resources and encouragement to thrive. I have  championed innovative instructional practices, advanced opportunities for gifted learners, and fostered partnerships that benefit the entire school community.

I believe that strong schools are the heart of a strong community and I am ready to bring my experience, collaborative spirit, and deep-rooted commitment to service to the Garfield Re-2 School Board.

I am a first generation college graduate and a life long learner. l have a Master’s in Curriculum Development and Instruction from the University of Phoenix and a Master’s in Gifted Education from Regis University.  More importantly, I hear the concerns from educators and families and I can hit the ground running from the day I am elected. I know the issues, I know the terms, and I understand the systems.
