Danielle Coulter
Board Director
Hi, my name is Danielle Coulter and I have Cerebral Palsy. I live in the beautiful place of Snowmass Village, Colorado. I do have challenges everyday but it doesn’t stop me from living my dreams. I love to horseback ride and I’m the first adaptive snowboarder in the world! Now not many of people can say that, can they?
I love using technology with my disability. I was asked to be on the board so I can help others learn how technology will help them with their disability.
Katie Grange
Board Director
Katie’s compassion and competitive nature are a potent combination. She’s fostered dialogue and created networks among the local disability communities, and expanded those connections nationally and globally. She currently serves on the board for Ascendigo Autism Services, located here in the Roaring Fork Valley, serving youth and adults across the autism spectrum through experiential community based learning opportunities. She is also a past board member of Challenge Aspen, a local organization dedicated to impacting lives with meaningful experiences to individuals with cognitive or physical challenges. She served at the governor’s appointment on the State Council for Developmental Disabilities. Katie also assists people with disabilities to find local housing.
Kara Brouhard
Board Director
I was born and raised in Glenwood Springs. I live in my own house and it is a “Smart Home.” I use apps on my iPad to help guide me through my day, and I control a lot of my lights with my voice and Alexa! Alexa helps me be more independent too because I can ask Alexa all kinds of questions to learn about what is interesting to me.
I feel like I am brave and strong and I like to do things to help others. I like to go and talk to people about how technology can help them be more independent!
