Project Manager for the Healthy Kids Health Scores, Local Food System Project The purpose of this study is to uncover the potential for Denver Public Schools (DPS) to implement and sustain a replicable, economically viable urban agriculture model focused upon supplying all its own fresh fruits & vegetables. This feasibility study seeks to determine the capital improvements needed for DPS to include the Healthy Kids Healthy Scores program in the DPS General Obligation Bond that will go in front of the voters in the fall of 2012. In order to determine the most feasible and economical model for implementing a local food system within DPS, the following criteria are being considered: qualitative benefits, carbon footprint impact, available acreage for farming, crop production capabilities, kitchen type and needs assessment, food hub design, food quality and transportation standards, school menu options, health and safety liability, labor contracts, and zoning/policy implications.This study is funded by The Colorado Health Foundation, under the goal of “Healthy Living”. The Colorado Health Foundation measurable results include: • Increase the number of children who eat adequate amounts of fruits and vegetables daily• Increase the number of children who receive healthy meals at school• Increase the number of under-served Coloradans who have convenient access to fruits and vegetablesSchool and Evaluations Coordinator for the IPLAY StudyThis research study seeks to understand how physical environments and curriculum within those environments affect physical activity behaviors in elementary aged children. The study employs a 2 (environmental intervention versus no environmental intervention) by 2 (curriculum intervention versus no curriculum intervention) factorial design at 24 ethnically diverse elementary schools with measures done each year for baseline, intervention and post intervention data.

While pursuing a Masters of Urban and Regional Planning, I worked for the Colorado Center for Community Development. I gathered information and assisted with grant writing for LiveWell Westwood in an effort to improve fresh and nutritious food access in the Westwood neighborhood. In an effort to provide the Adams-14 school district with information for future grant opportunities, I created a site plan for an elementary school's playground that will help stimulate education and interactive play on the playground. Through site analysis and parent, principal and teacher meetings, the school will receive a unique vision and playground revitalization plan that will be used to guide future improvements and grant opportunities.
