Alison Brand is a Senior Deputy District Attorney with the Boulder County District Attorney’s Office where she specializes in prosecuting crimes of domestic violence. She enjoys working closely with Zonta Foothills Club on the annual Beth Haynes Award, which honors excellence in law enforcement response to domestic violence.

Mardi Moore has dedicated her life’s work to elevating the rights, visibility, safety, and socio-economic status of the LGBTQ community, building grassroots organizations from the ground up, living through the AIDS pandemic, and continuing to see the gradual, albeit slower-than-wished, acceptance of the LGBTQ+ community into mainstream public discourse. Moore has been on the frontlines of the good fight for over 30 years at the local and national level.  She currently serves as the CEO of Rocky Mountain Equality and she is a better judge than dancer.
