Senior Profile Nick Barnard

Nick Barnard - Nick was born in La Junta on June 18, 1986 and is well-known in the community as he has worked for the Town of Eads for a number of summers and holidays. His role model is his grandfather because Nick says "he's like a father to me." Nick is an extremely smart young man and says Calculus and Physics are his favorite classes in school because they are challenging for him. After high school he plans to attend the Colorado School of Mines where he has already been accepted. He sees himself in ten years working for a large engineering company and playing video games. His advice to the underclassmen is to "don't worry too much but don't take the easy way out." Nick knows a lot about our community through his work with the Town and says that he wishes there was more development that would create jobs.
