Hi there, I’m Ethnie Treick, a dedicated community volunteer and advocate who is invested in our community, and passionate about helping others and making a positive impact.
As a young adult, my dad was electrocuted while working on a job in road construction. He ended up losing his right hand and spending six months in the Mayo Clinic Burn Unit. He went on to put himself through college and law school and spent his career fighting on behalf of injured workers who were struggling in our community. That accident changed the trajectory of his life, and it deeply impacted mine.
My mom, an educator, taught some of the least resourced, marginalized kids at an elementary school in Rapid City, SD, where I grew up.
My values of hard work, community, and resilience were formed through the experiences of my dad and mom and they raised me and my sisters to have empathy and care about others in our community.
That’s why I’m running to represent Colorado’s House District 52.
I know what’s possible when we have leaders who really listen, stand up for those who are struggling, and bring bold action to our toughest issues.
After earning a bachelor's degree from the University of Colorado at Boulder and a master's degree from the University of Nevada, Reno, I worked for Senator Tom Daschle of South Dakota and Governor Jim Doyle of Wisconsin. I then moved back to Colorado for a career in media relations, government affairs and community advocacy. I represented Xcel Energy at the Colorado Capitol for six legislative sessions, advocating for energy policies to promote environmental justice. During that time, I served on the Green Jobs Colorado Advisory Council and the Advisory Board of the Renewable Energy Development Infrastructure Project.
In 2014, I made the decision to leave my career to take care of our young family, following the difficult 2013 delivery of my second son.
I nearly died in childbirth. That trauma and the knowledge that my boys nearly lost their mom completely changed my focus. I wanted nothing more than to give them more of what they almost lost…more time with me.
