Denver, Colorado is a diverse city that attracts friendly people that enjoy sports, outdoor activities, and eating. It is also a city that loves pets!
Living in the Denver metro area has many challenges for those that are able to enjoy homeownership due to the rising costs of apartments/townhouses.
Even though organizations are available to assist underprivileged residents, the commuication and advertising of these organizations is limited. The current transportation system to reach these organizations does not address the vastness of the city for this same population.
I am fortunate to help this under served community to bridge some of these stop gaps.

The community of Denver is quite diverse and overall well mannered folk. I am forever thankful for the district of Lowry, (where I live) as it is an extremely safe neighborhood with the kindest people you’ll meet. Downtown Denver is filled with the most extraordinary family owned shops which attract the modern consumer. The entertainment in Denver is more than a small town girl could ask for! Denver is filled with absolute life, vibrancy, and action! The only downside I’d say would be the lack of housing for those on the streets. To know that someone like you and I is lacking a very basic human right and necessity breaks my heart. They are just as deserving of housing and health benefits as anyone.
Great access to shops and restaurants as well as the mountains. There is always so much to do in Denver. Downtown is amazing with 16th street mall and Larimer street. There is always something new and exciting to discover in Denver! Rockies games are the best! It is so much fun to hang out at the roof top with drinks and snacks all around. Venturing out of the city, you have plenty of hiking and biking spots! Not only are there great spots for all sorts of activites, there are also many dog friendly spots too! Dog parks and regualr parks with easy access. Almost all the restaurants offer patio sitting where you and your furry friend can sit and enjoy the day. There are quite a few coffee shops and cute niche stores. The breweries are top notch and there are so many of them! I have yet to explore all that Denver has to offer. Almost every year I am here I find a new concert or event to go to. There is an art district as well, which is definitely something to check out. Adventurers come
