Name: Ashley
Hometown: Denver
Major: English and Secondary Education

Favorite class: Young Adult Literature
Background:
I am a Colorado native and love going to school in the heart of the city. I love being outdoors and reading. I have wanted to be a teacher since the third grade. I can't wait to make a difference in this world....one student at a time. Along with going to school, I work construction and am a laborer for Gerald H. Phipps. I like construction, but my passion is teaching English and literature. One of my dream jobs is teaching English in a different country.
Favorite quote:
"We read to know we are not alone."
– C.S. Lewis
Why I’m excited about being part of “The Apprentice Challenge @ Metro State”:
I am excited to be part of the Apprentice Challenge because I want to work with nonprofit organizations in Denver. I want to see what kind of an impact we can make on our state. I think it will be a really unique experience. I also look forward to working with students who I probably would have not met otherwise.
Why I should win “The Apprentice Challenge @ Metro State”:
I should win because what I learn from this experience will be put back into the community. I plan to be a teacher in DPS, so what I learn will be transferred on to my students. I want to be able to use my knowledge and connections to further my future students’ education.
