DEPUTY DIRECTOR

Rochelle joined the Mile High Workshop staff in October 2019 after spending some time volunteering here. Since then, she’s held almost every position at the WorkShop so she knows A LOT about how we operate! Rochelle says she was drawn here for a couple of reasons: “I was so impressed with the amazing work environment. I felt so loved and accepted, and more importantly, the work we do for the community is outstanding.

Every day presents a new opportunity to learn and grow. I wanted to be somewhere I felt I was living my purpose. MHW has provided that for me.”

A Colorado native, Rochelle loves the four seasons here and the spectacular view of the mountains we enjoy every day. Outside of the WorkShop, she enjoys reading, making jewelry, and spending time with her kids, husband, and extended family.
