This is Aisha! This is her second summer working for The Greenway Foundation’s SPREE program and let me tell you, she loves it! She is currently a rising sophomore in college who is studying psychology. Her main goal is to start working with kids and then go back to school to get a Ph.D. She has a passion for helping others and loves working with kids!

Amy grew up hiking and camping around New Mexico. She graduated from the University of North Carolina Wilmington in 2012 with a Bachelor’s of Science in Environmental Science and a minor in Biology. She worked as an Environmental Educator with the North Carolina Aquariums until she moved to Denver and is looking forward to a great summer working with SPREE.  

Bailey is a certified art teacher from Wisconsin. She has travelled across the United States and to other countries. Bailey loves exploring and learning about new places and is especially excited about spending the summer with SPREE.

Kait Bashford is a Colorado native who enjoys riding bikes, hiking with her two dogs and listening to music. She graduated from the University of Colorado Boulder with Bachelor’s Degrees in Anthropology and Environmental Studies. Kait can’t wait to spend her first summer with SPREE!

Maggie loves working with children and has been doing it one way or another since she stopped being a child herself. She is from Denver but attended Beloit College in Wisconsin where she studied Anthropology. During the school year she works with elementary students at the Downtown Denver Expeditionary School. This is her second summer working for SPREE.

Meg Mahoney graduated in May 2015 with a Bachelor’s of Science in Environmental Communication. She is excited to work with SPREE this summer and looks forward to catching crawdads with the students. Her favorite animals are otters, bats, and elephants.

Rachel is excited to be back at SPREE for her second summer! Originally from Pennsylvania, Rachel is happy to be spending her second Colorado summer on the river. She loves the outdoors, elephants, and candy!

We’re all looking forward to a great summer ahead, hope you are too!
