Meet Our Staff

Petya is currently pursuing a Doctorate degree in Curriculum and Instruction at the Boise State College of Education. She completed her MBA program at the College of Business and Economics in 2008 and has been a TRIO Educational Specialist since then.

Petya loves travelling and learning about cultures and languages. One of her bucket list items is to visit every country in the world. She might settle for 85 percent of the countries.

Petya takes frequent trips in the Idaho mountains, lakes and rivers to recharge her batteries and enjoy her majesty – Mother Nature.

She is the proud mom of a very active and curious 2 year old boy who fills her days with joy and laughter.

Corey has been at Boise State University 2012 working as the technology coordinator with TRIO Educational Talent Search and TRIO Upward Bound programs.  He also instructs the Teaching with Technology (T3) course for the TRIO Summer Program.  He loves working with students and loves to see the changes that come into the lives through what TRIO offers.

When not at work, he enjoys spending time with his family, fishing on the Boise river, hiking, camping, biking, and skiing in the nearby mountains.

He has a Master’s of Education degree in Instructional Technology and a Bachelor’s of Arts in Elementary Education.
