“We are thrilled to have Kim join EDCC. Kim brings a wealth of experience that will allow EDCC to move to the next level,” said Kelly Flenniken, incoming chair for the EDCC.


Woodworth brings 10 years of experience in budget management, meeting and event coordination, and database management. She earned a bachelor’s degree in visual arts with an emphasis in graphic design from University of Northern Colorado.


“I am excited to have the opportunity to work with Colorado’s economic development community. Colorado is not only a unique place to do business. We have a spirit of collaboration which fosters a sense of community, innovative thinking and lasting relationships,” Woodworth said. “EDCC’s core mission is to do just that. I am proud to be a part of this organization.”
