Working for Broomfield

About Heidi

I was born and raised in Colorado, from Parker and Niwot, and I’ve been serving Broomfield since 2007. After attending Baylor University, and graduating with a B.S. in Biological Studies and a secondary teaching certification from Colorado State University, I worked as a high school math and science teacher in various states with my husband, Scott, while he served in the 82nd Airborne and was an Aide de Camp to General Urias. After Scott served in Afghanistan in 2007, we d- ecided to put our roots down in Broomfield, while I opened my own math tutoring business and worked as the Commu- nications Director at a local church. We have raised our two children, Connor and Emee, in Broomfield and are so grate- ful we made the decision to raise them in this community that has given us so much. Connor attended Holy Family High School and now is studying to become a physical therapist at the University of Jamestown, while playing NAIA football and running track. Emee is a freshman at Legacy High School, is a competitive swimmer, and interned at a Veterinary c- linic in Ward 5. How Heidi has been engaged in Broomfield and beyond: 

I am deeply involved in my community and I understand the challenges that Broomfield faces. I currently serve as the d- irector of the Broomfield Resettlement Task Force which assists with resettling refugees from Ukraine and Afghanistan in Broomfield. This work, alongside our all- volunteer team, earned the Heart of Broomfield Angel Award in 2022.

Additionally, I have been serving on the following boards:

Broomfield Area Chamber of Commerce
Broomfield Sister Cities (Current sister city is Ueda, Japan)
NACO Presidential Appointment to the Federal Immigration Task Force
Metro Area County Commissioners
CSBG Tripartite Board- We work on keeping those on fixed and/or low incomes housed and preventing homelessness.
Colorado Communities for Climate Action
Early Childhood Council
I have also volunteered to assist women in domestic violence situations to complete their GED’s and served as a volunteer math tutor at Westlake Middle School.

I was elected to Broomfield’s Ward 5 City Council in 2019 and I am humbled at the opportunity to continue my work list- ening to, representing, and bettering my community. I am a strong advocate for affordability, safety, and being fiscally r- esponsible. During the worst of the COVID-19 pandemic, I helped ensure increased vaccine access and helped local bu- sinesses re-open safely. Local businesses are the backbone of the community and the key to economic vitality. I am pr- oud to use my office to advocate for fiscal and environmental sustainability, affordability, diversity, safety and police de- partment support, mental health services, and government transparency.
