Dawn loves the process of discovery, particularly when it involves people, culture and art.
While earning her BFA from the University of Denver, Dawn spent a semester studying in Australia. Since then, she has enjoyed additional travel in the South Pacific as well as in China, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Japan, and Vietnam.
Dawn’s favorite international experiences include adventure, humor and those that have led to life-long friendships. Weather she is sharing “little duck burritos (a.k.a. Peking Duck)” in a Chinese hutong, traversing crocodile-riddled waters in the Australian outback, or helping those afraid of heights to cross a swinging rope bridge over a deep ravine, you can bet she is enjoying every minute.
When Dawn is not helping students, making art or traveling, she also enjoys spending time in the great outdoors of beautiful Colorado. She tries to stay out of the ER, but with her sense of adventure, she can’t make any promises!
