Vicky Dorvee Profile

Write a profile our editor said. Really? Ugh, here ya go: I've had a pretty unremarkable, but incredibly satisfying life. Forty years ago the mountains called and I answered by moving from Wisconsin to Boulder. I've been grateful to call Niwot home for 30 years now and it's where we raised two wonderful daughters. That stuff and the rest of what I could list as the facts of my life would straight up make your eyes snap shut.

I'm not an artist or a musician or a rocket scientist or an athlete. But I've interviewed those folks and lots of other fascinating people. Everyone has a story and, even though at heart I'm an introverted, awkward person, having the title of reporter has allowed me to discover that Niwot is teeming with people you want to pull up a chair next to and dive into a conversation with.

To me, life is never boring, it's hard to sit still, there's so much nature to walk through, food to make and eat, and entertainment to enjoy. The state of our world requires staying informed and lending a hand where it will help. Then there's family, friends, and so so many places to visit.

I took up enough of your time; now go find something interesting to do.
