Monique “Mo” Fair, Executive Director

Monique, who more commonly goes by “Mo,” grew up in the heart of downtown Denver. Her father took her to the mountains to fish and camp from a young age. She believes this is where her connection and love for the environment began. Attending Chadron State College on a track scholarship, Mo graduated in 2014 with her degree in Ecology focusing on Wildlife Management and will complete her Masters of Science in Management and Strategic Leadership from CSU Fort Collins in April of 2022. Mo has served the Partnership in various roles since 2019, including educator and community outreach manager.

Elena Smith, Environmental Education and Outreach Program Manager

Elena is a Colorado native whose love for the outdoors began in her childhood while cooking jiffy pop over the campfire on family camping trips. After graduating from the University of Redlands in 2018 with a degree in Environmental Science Elena found herself pulled towards the environmental stewardship and education field as her passion for inspiring a love for nature among others grew. Elena comes to the Sand Creek Regional Greenway Partnership with 3 years of experience in hands-on interpretive outdoor education. Elena is passionate about providing opportunities for everyone to access nature and is excited for the opportunity to get youth and adults out onto the Greenway and connect them with the natural world outside their front doors. If she is not out on the Greenway looking for wildlife you can usually find her backpacking, trail running, doodling or cooking in her free time.
