I joined the SkyView Academy team in the Summer of 2020 as the College & Career Counselor. I was eager to jump in and start advising students as Counseling and Guidance is my passion. I came to SkyView Academy after retiring from the University of New Mexico after 26 years of service. I earned my BA in Psychology with a minor in Sociology from the University of New Mexico and earned my Masters degree in Guidance and Counseling from New Mexico Highlands University. My family and I then relocated to CO where I hold a Special Services Provider License.
Working as the College & Career Counselor at SkyView Academy has allowed me to help ALL SkyView students with their College exploration, career exploration, and helping them prepare for what is to come once they graduate and move on into the real world.
I am also the SkyView Academy Middle School Girls Volleyball A Team Coach so feel that I have a strong connection to SkyView and the students who attend SkyView Academy. I will continue to uphold the Vision and the Mission of SkyView Academy and the HS Leadership Team. I am honored and proud to be a part of the wonderful SkyView Academy community.

I am a mom, wife, and small business owner. I was a high school teacher for two years 19 years ago. I love long walks or hikes with my dog and family when they are able. Yoga is my saving grace and a practice that I have done for 25+ years. I love being outside and want to live on a beach in the future.

I'm so excited to be a part of the SkyView community! I have lived in Colorado my whole life, except for a brief 6 year sabbatical to the midwest for college. My husband and I have been married since 2004. We have three daughters who attend SkyView, and one unemployed housecat who has yet to show any ambition.

My name is Kenzie King and I am the elementary school dean as well as a first grade teacher. I absolutely love teaching and the community here at our school. It is so great to spend each day with my students, we have so much fun and love to learn from each other. I was born and raised here in Colorado and have no plans leaving any time soon! When I am not at school I enjoy spending time with my family, reading, running, and anything else that gets my outside!

Hi, there! I am one of the third grade teachers here. I have been teaching at SVA since 2020 and am so happy to be here! I am originally from Iowa, but have happily traded the cornfields for mountains. 🙂 In my spare time you can find me spending time with my husband & friends, hiking, or watching my favorite tv shows.

Steve was born in Grand Junction, CO and moved to the Denver area before he was one year old. He and his family currently reside in Highlands Ranch. Since 2005 he has worked at the same business. The global company where he works is based out of Melbourne, Australia, and he is the Head of I.T. Business Services. He is actively involved in serving on his church’s Tech Arts team as a Video Director. Previously, he volunteered as a Scholar Director for the scholarship organization Education First. He is the father of 4 kids, all of whom attend SkyView Academy. His 3 daughters are currently in the 6th, 4th and 2nd grades and his son is also in the 2nd grade. He holds the distinct honor of being SVA’s first Watch D.O.G.S. volunteer. In his spare time, Steve is actively involved in the organ transplant community (being a kidney recipient himself in 2016). In his spare time, he enjoys photography, hiking, golf, basketball, ping pong (and won a gold medal in ping pong at the 2018 Transplant Games of America along with a silver medal in golf).
I grew up in Illinois as the son of a veterinarian. I attended Iowa State University and Southern Illinois University to obtain my science degree and teaching credentials. I have taught in Missouri, Illinois, Northern Ireland and Colorado. I enjoy sports, outdoor activities, reading and playing guitar in my free time. I am looking forward to retirement.
