Spencer's Story
Life
After high school I went to work for my dad in the restaurant and bar business for a year. I was commuting between Colo Springs and Denver and got tired of the drive. I then went to work at Southwest Plaza working for Joslins. There were some old Columbine alumni working there and we had some good times. I decided after two years of working there that I had to go back to school and get a degree so I could get a real job and make some money. I went up to Greeley (UNC) and majored in Psychology and graduated Summa Cum Laude. I then worked in the prison and jail system for a brief stint as a counselor and decided rather quickly that I needed to get out of that environment- too emotionally draining. I spent about 7 years working through college and afterwards doing security work for different concert promoters in Denver.
We are currently living in Sin City (Las Vegas). I have had the wonderful opportunity to work in the Casino industry for the past 16 years. I spent 7 years at the T...Expand for more
eller House casino in Central City Colorado before moving to Las Vegas 9 years ago to open a new property. It has been a great opportunity and I have been blessed to be surrounded by great employees and mentors. The industry is tough but provides for constant challenges as every day is not like the day before. My family (wife and 4 children)provides for my source of love and enjoyment (sometimes stress!!). My wife (Brenda Gibson CHS Class of 1980) deserves credit for sticking with me for 24 years and working around my schedules while in the Casino world...Holidays, weekends, nights, etc...it was never an easy task in the early days, but now it has paid off and we enjoy the fruits of our labors. Just taking every day one at a time and taking the time to smell the roses with the kids......can you ask for more than that? I think not!! Would love to hear from old friends or classmates, spent many great years in the old neighborhood and I would not change it for a minute. Be safe, SMILE :)
