Elise Bolton

Elise grew up in Wiley, Colorado—a town with more cows than people—before earning a dual Bachelor of Arts degree in English and Professional and Technical Writing from UCCS. She enjoys crafting, thrifting, writing, and singing, and can always be tempted by something sweet—especially Salted Peanut Butter Cup ice cream from Josh & John’s. Her favorite thing about UCCS is its beautiful campus and close-knit community, and she loves calling Colorado Springs home. Elise believes college is a time to embrace learning, both academically and personally, and encourages students to take the pressure off having everything figured out.
