Welcome to NoCo123

Portrait of Oscar Avila

My name is Oscar Avila. I am a rising young professional driven by principles of service, community, and education.

I created NoCo123 as a long-term public history and community project that interprets Northern Colorado through accessible, local, and regional perspectives. This cyberspace manifests my vision for radical transformations in the ways experts and members of the public relate to and communicate with one another.

By exploring Northern Colorado through time, community, and environment, NoCo123 aims to contribute to the democratization of learning and knowledge production alike. I hope that NoCo123 will serve professionals, students, and neighbors while highlighting the interconnectedness of the region's shared history, life, and sense of place.

While I establish the initial infrastructure and interface, this website will primarily hold my own work. In time, however, I look forward to working with fellow neighbors, educators, and local voices to help transform this website into a shared, accessible, digital home that can benefit members across our community.
