Hi there! I’ve been with the library since 2025 and grew up visiting the old library location, where I discovered my love for reading and imagination. I’m excited to help more children nurture that same creativity! I’m currently studying digital media and animation, and I love illustration, hand-drawn animation, art, fantasy and sci-fi, and writing.

Hello! I’ve been with the library since 2025. You may know me as a teacher, but my passion for reading led me to a part-time position here. I absolutely love the library’s environment and the people I get to interact with, and I’m grateful to give back to the community through reading and all the programs the library offers. When I’m not teaching or at the library, I enjoy dancing, rock climbing, and hanging out with my three corgis!

Hello! I’ve been with the library since 2024 and serve as the Outreach Assistant for our Bookmobile, bringing library services directly to our communities so patrons have access to books, resources, and programs wherever they are. I love the outdoors and enjoy camping in my free time, as well as creating personalized, decorated cakes with edible art. I also enjoy a good movie on my days off. I’m bilingual and always happy to help please don’t hesitate to reach out if you need assistance!

Hi! I’ve been with the library since 2024 and am one of the Library Pages. It’s been a fun and rewarding experience, and I’m truly grateful to be part of the team! I recently graduated from high school and plan to attend college while continuing to work at the library. In my free time, I enjoy reading and baking, and one of my favorite parts of the job is helping with kids’ programs and sharing book recommendations. It’s always a joy to connect people with stories they’ll love!

Hello there! I’ve been with the library since 2021 and feel so blessed to be part of such an amazing community. After working the past four summers here, I’m excited to transition into a full-time position in outreach and children’s programming! With a background in elementary education and experience working with children of all ages, I’m passionate about creating engaging and educational programs. In my free time, I enjoy spending time in nature, walking with my puppy, and being with my family.
Kelly Graybill
Library Associate
Hi! I’ve been with the library since 2017 and joined the library team full-time two years ago after a 31-year teaching career. Storytime is my jam you’ll often find me singing, dancing, and reading with our youngest patrons! I also love working with older kids in our Sew a Softie hand-sewing class. If you spot a mess at the library, there’s a good chance I’m behind it learning is a messy business! When I’m not at the library, I enjoy traveling and spending time with family and friends. I look forward to seeing you!

Hi there! I’ve been with the library since 2014, and it’s truly become my home away from home. I oversee youth programs, outreach, and our lively summer reading program, always bringing energy, heart, and a little sazón to everything I do. Outside the library, I love working out, exploring Denver, cheering on games, and spending time with my familia.
