Professional/Academic Experience

My name is Naya Russell-Coprich I was born and raised in Denver, Colorado pursuing my undergraduate degree at the University of Northern Colorado. My major is Criminal Justice/Criminology with a minor in Psychology and Africana Studies. After undergrad I would like to obtain my doctorate and become a professor of Criminology teaching at an HBCU. I would eventually like to be recruited into the FBI and become a crime analyst. I am involved in great academic programs such as the Ronald E. McNair Post-baccalaureate Program, Sachs Foundation, CHE, and Academic Bridge. I also hold many leadership positions on campus such as President of the Theta Iota chapter of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., President of Black Women of Today, and a core member of Black Campus Ministry.
