Mr. Michael (Mike) Martinez

After moving around a lot early in my youth, I called Carolina, PR my home where I spent my junior high and high school days. After graduating from high school and spending a few years in New York, I enlisted in the Army and served for 4 years before moving to Colorado in 2014. 
 
In 2020, I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with Minors in Coaching and Sport Management from Metropolitan State University of Denver (MSU Denver). In 2022, I earned a Master of Arts in School Counseling from University of Denver.
 
My goal is to be a visible face that the students and the community are talking to. I want to be seen in more than just my office. I have 2 years of experience coaching football. I was part of a teaching program in Denver for 1 year during the pandemic. I want to reach students where they are at rather than them always having to come to me.
 
Outside of work, my hobbies include golfing, fishing, reading, watching lots of sports, spending time with my wife of 10 years and our dog, and learning new skills. The continual desire to learn and grow is something I hope students take away from their time with me.
