Our Leadership

Executive Director, PCED

Kendra Calderon

Executive Director for PCED

I was born and raised in Holyoke. In a couple years after graduating from Holyoke High School, Class of 2004, I moved to Texas. After many years of being away, I returned home to Northeastern Colorado. I returned to Holyoke in 2015 and subsequently moved to Haxtun in 2016 where I raised my children Azariah and Avian Calderon. I love these two communities and what they stand for. 
Prior to this opportunity, I worked in purchasing for healthcare for ten years. Working for Melissa Memorial Hospital for 6.5 years, Wray Community District Hospital for 1 year and Haxtun Health for 2.5 years. I am so blessed to have been given this opportunity to be your new Executive Director for Phillips County Economic Development. I am very excited to dive into the world of Economic Development where I will be able to give back to these communities that do so much.
