Nicholas Kunz
Regional Coordinator
Nicholas Kunz has worked in a wide variety of positions relating to the field of Education for over 25 years. He has spent time with many different organizations as a youth mentor, classroom teacher, nonprofit administrator, and board member. Nicholas earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music Performance and Composition and a Master of Arts in Education of At-Risk Youth, both from the College of Santa Fe.
As NM MESA’s North Central Regional Coordinator, he is grateful for the time he spends with many of the brightest, most inspiring and most promising youth throughout New Mexico. When he is not at work, Nicholas can probably be found chopping wood, passing precious hours with his three daughters, or playing the banjo or some sort of percussion instrument.
