Occupation: 3rd Grade Teacher

After high school, I was on a path which had no clear direction.  For about a year I attended the University of Southern Colorado, then transfered to Pueblo Community College.   In 2001, I received an Associates of Arts Degree in Dental Assisting.  Prior to graduation in 2001 my heart was telling me to change my path and go to school for what I had originally had set out to do, TEACH!   I returned to USC (Colorado State University of Pueblo) and began pursuing my dream.  In 2002, I began working as a mentor for the HOSTS Program (Helping One Student to Succeed) at Goodnight.   In 2006, I graduated with a degree in Elementary Education.  Although not my first year at Goodnight it is however my 2nd year teaching 3rd grade.  I will be graduating from Colorado State University of Pueblo with my Masters Degree in Instructional Technology in May 2009.  I married Dr. Matt Thielbar, South High Class of '98 (a Pharmacist at Parkview Hospital) on June 18, 2005.  We have two Beagles, Shelby and Bailey, they do a great job of keeping us busy.  We are expecting our first child September 9, 2009.

Military Service: Current

After graduating I went off to Marine Corps boot camp in San Diego, getting stationed in Naples, Italy or the first 2 years doing anti-terrorism operations. Then I went to Hawaii or 2 years as a Squad Leader for an infantry platoon. We deployed to Japan, Australia, and did some security on Merchant Marine vessals that were preparing for the war in Iraq. I left the infantry to go home to Pueblo and be with my little girl Jeseca for 3 years as a Marine Corps recruiter. While on recruiting duty I added 2 more adorable kids to my family list. After completing that I headed back out to Hawaii to be a Platoon Sergeant for an infantry platoon and deployed to Iraq. While there I was promoted and moved to Weapons Company to be the Platoon Sergeant for the Anti-Armor platoon. Returning from Iraq I met my loving wife Tracy, and promised to not let her get away. When she completed her schooling for nursing she moved out to Hawaii where we have a house and now a little puppy. I would like to make it to the reunion but since there are very few flights from Fallujah, I will be unable to attend. I ended up getting my BA in business management over the first 5 years in the Marine Corps. Still trying to figure out where to go next in life, but enjoying every minute of it.

I graduated as the Outstanding Marketing Graduate of 2003 in the last graduating class from the University of Southern Colorado.

After graduation, I spent a year at UNC in Greeley then moved to CU Boulder to study engineering. While in school, I joined an outdoor club and on Thanksgiving Day 2001 while on a large group canyoneering trip in Utah's Escalante State Park I met my husband-to-be Nahum. Nahum was a research professor at CU at the time so we enjoyed the outdoor Boulder lifestyle together for several years. I got my BS in Dec 2003 and MS in Dec 2005 in Civil Engineering then a job at a great firm in downtown Boulder. Nahum and I got married Aug 5, 2007 and with that came responsibility for him. He accepted a tenure-track position at Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, VA in the Spring of 2007 and we moved to Appalachia in January of 2008. We’ve made some good friends which make the area survivable but it’s been a very hard move for both of us. Luckily, our lives brightened considerably when we welcomed our first daughter Shayna Melinda on Feb 27, 2009. We both love the family life and full-time motherhood is great. I go back to work part-time June 15th because I like being an engineer too. We’ll make our 3rd trip to Israel at the end of the year to introduce Shayna to Nahum’s family. I’m giving myself till then to make the tough decision of being a stay-at-home mom or not.

Children: Yes

Occupation: Looking

Upon graduating High School, I moved to Boulder and began my studies. I graduated CU with a double major in Russian and German Studies. After finding out that the CIA would not take me in (because of my car wreck in 1999 that broke my neck) I switched outlooks and began my career as a restaurant manager. While working with Qdoba Mexician Grill I met my wife Courtney and we were married in Dec. of 2006. Three days after the wedding we found out that she was pregnant with my daughter Raylene Niccole. She was born in Aug '07. My son was born in Feb '09 and we found out that once again we are going to be blessed with another child in Jan '10. After 9 years as a restaurant manager I was terminated and thus moved back to Pueblo were we have been staying since April '09.

Children: No

Occupation: Youth Minister

 

After living in Kansas City for five years, I can finally call it home. I graduated from Saint Mary College with B.A.s in Pastoral Ministry and Theology and minors in acting and voice. My wife Jean graduated from the same school, now University of Saint Mary, in 2004 with degrees in Mathematics and Secondary Education. We both graduated from our alma mater with MBAs in 2007. 
 I love my two jobs: husband and youth minister for a Catholic church with 1500 teens. I still enjoy being outside (working on my tan), and as often as I can, I go running for 5-7 miles. Although I haven't been in any plays or operas since college, my voice is a blessing I share with others on their special occasions (weddings, confirmations, etc.). Jean and I have been married for 5 amazing years, and our favorite TV show (and Wii game) is Dancing with the Stars. Since Jean isn't as coordinated on the dance floor as she is on the soccer field, I teach her all the moves! Of course we love long walks on the beach (though we are about as far away from one as possible!) and white-water rafting down the cold Arkansas River when we visit Colorado.
