Lulu Lantzy
Chief Activation Officer | Auraria Campus
Lulu Lantzy is the Chief Activation Officer for Auraria Campus, a vibrant 150-acre academic neighborhood in the heart of Denver. Having dedicated her career to elevating the next generation, Lulu is excited to connect campus to the community and help create a robust learning environment. Prior to Auraria, Lulu was a part of the Emily Griffith Tech College Executive Team. As the head of partnerships and innovation, Lulu oversaw the successful implementation of current and prospective employer engagement initiatives and leveraged industry partnerships to connect students to the Colorado workforce.
An entrepreneur at heart, Lulu ran her first business when she was a sophomore at the University of Michigan. While working multiple jobs to pay for school, she started a summer business employing 6 people and successfully turned enough profit to pay for the rest of her education. She was hooked on the exhilarating feeling of building something from scratch and launched several successful construction companies straight out of college. Lulu joined the Entrepreneur’s Organization in 2006 as one of its youngest members. Inspired by the mentors who deeply impacted her journey, Lulu became the Executive Vice President of the largest student entrepreneurial boot camp in the US, mentoring hundreds of undergrads through their business ventures.
Deeply committed to the Denver community, Lulu serves as a Techstars Mentor and board member for the Asian Chamber of Commerce, Girls Inc, Women’s Chamber of Commerce and Civic Center Conservancy. In her spare time, she enjoys hiking and searching for the best mochi donut in Colorado.
