Colorado House of Representatives District 40

Naquetta Ricks fled a civil war in her native country, Liberia, and resettled in Aurora. Since then, she has worked to improve my community by helping build economic knowledge, capacity and attainability for immigrant and low income communities. “I serve on various community boards, and find joy in helping people reach their goal of home ownership through affordable housing as a mortgage broker,” she says. Ricks earned a bachelor’s and master’s degree in Business Administration from Metropolitan University and the University of Colorado.
