Lee Mulberry
"Born and raised in Ohio in family of 7 children.  I was heavily involved in sports in high school and went to Ohio University on a track scholarship.  I met my wife Karen during our freshmen year and we were married during our junior year.  We have been together since and have 2 sons, 2 daughters-in-law and 4 grandchildren.
 
After graduation from college I joined a company in their management training program, they moved us around the country every 9 months to 2 years.  We ended up in Denver in the mid 1980’s.  While we lived in California I got my MBA from Pepperdine University and moved to the telecom industry.  I worked for AT&T, Alcatel and Reliance Comm Tec.  I spent 4 years with IBM Global Services as a Principal in the Telecom consulting group.  I have been in consulting and educational software sales for the past 5 years.
 
I joined Denver Mile High Rotary 8 years ago, I spent 5 years on the board of directors, 3 years on the Foundation board and 2 years as Secretary.  I was voted Rotarian of the Year for 2012-2013.
I chaired the largest fundraiser for 3 years.
 
I got involved with Interact 4 years ago when I helped start a club at CEC/Middle College of Denver, a high school at 26th and Federal.  I thoroughly enjoy working with youth and helping them grow and mature.  I also work with the Peaceful Schools Program.
 
I am on the board of directors for the Carson J. Spencer Foundation.
 
I joined Highlands Ranch in November because of its vibrancy and relevancy.  I enjoy being around people that not only accomplish great things but have fun doing it."
