What would you like our BOLD community to know about you? Hi! I am Amanda, the newest addition to the BOLD Center! I am excited to be starting in the role of Coordinator for Community and Student Support. I want the BOLD community to know that I am an open book. You are welcome to ask me anything and I will tell you if I don’t feel comfortable answering. I am a first-generation student, I’ve traveled to 5/7 continents and over 40 countries, I love crafting and video games, and I enjoy using my creativity in all aspects of my life (especially cooking and baking). I am also a CU alumna and have worked in 7 offices on campus. I look forward to meeting you all and getting to know you better, so please stop by and say hello!
What is your favorite aspect about the BOLD Center? I love that the BOLD Center is a community. You can feel the positive energy when you enter the space. People are always laughing, joking, or studying together. It feels like walking into a home.
Favorite places travelled? I have 3 favorite places that I have traveled to: 1) Greece, 2) Egypt, 3) Japan. I am a huge nerd about ancient history. I was able to study abroad in Greece as an undergraduate and did archaeology out there. I went to every museum I could and took over 2,000 pictures of artifacts. When I went to Egypt, it was when the pyramids were still open to the public to walk into, and it is an experience I’ll never forget. Japan is such a cool place because there is both a rich history and many modern advancements. Depending on where you are, it is a very different adventure!
