Triné Nelson (she, her, hers)
Triné Nelson, originally from Utah, has lived in the East Valley for thirteen years. She holds a Bachelor's degree from Utah State University in Human Development and a Master's degree in Learning Design and Technology from ASU. Triné has built a career working in, and around education. She began by helping youth in the foster care and juvenile justice systems to obtain job skills training in preparation for them to enter the workforce in 2003. Since that time, her understanding of the integral relationship between education and community involvement has only grown and she now works as a curriculum manager at ASU. Triné is an active community volunteer, focusing her time on strengthening public education and schools in her community. Triné believes that by providing supportive educational environments to our youth, we build a foundation that allows for the development of skills that will serve students and their community well beyond high school.
