One of our own, Joanna (Asia) Sieron, a senior in hospitality management here at CSU went to Super Bowl LVI with her company to host parties and events! So cool!

Welcome back Rams, and good luck on your first day of classes! Comment what course you are most excited for! 🍀🐏

Our next panelist Robert Duran! He is a 2012 graduate from CSU's Hospitality Program. He didn't always think he'd be in a career within this industry, especially after completing 2 years of college as an engineer major, but here he is! Robert is currently the Regional Manager for Blue Agave Grill, part of a local, 4 concept, 7 restaurant group lead by the Lucio's - part of the family formerly known for the Armadillo Mexican Restaurant. He has been with the company for a bit over 5 years now and began my journey with them as an Assistant Manager to AGM, GM and now current role. Since starting we've opened 3 additional restaurants. Outside of work life, he finds himself yearning for the outdoors, avidly hiking and biking. 
To learn more about Robert and his career experience, join us on November 4th! Email [email protected] for more information!

We would like to introduce you to our next panelist! Mountainside Events was formed by Taylor Strope, a native Coloradoan. Taylor has been in the hospitality industry for over 10 years and has planned a wide-range of events in the region. She got started in the event planning industry by working for a non-profit in Fort Collins planning fundraisers and community events before accepting a position at the Mishawaka Ampitheatre planning the weddings and special events at the venue. Born and raised in Fort Collins, Colorado, she loves the arts and music community Fort Collins offers. Besides planning events, some of Taylors’ favorite things are; spending time with friends and family outdoors, live music, barbecues and campfires. She embraces the “Colorado Culture” and has created a company that does the same.
