Kristen DuPree is a candidate for the at-large seat on the Metro Community College Board of Governors. She is running because she believes that we all benefit when our community has access to high-quality and affordable higher education options. Kristen grew up in Omaha and attended the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, earning a degree in Actuarial Science. Since graduation, she has worked in the insurance industry and became a Fellow of the Society of Actuaries in 2014.

Kristen believes Education is an investment we make in our community, and Metro Community College provides an exceptional return on investment. In fact, for every $1 invested in an MCC student, $11.90 in benefits is returned to the local economy. Her priorities include ensuring MCC remains affordable and serves the diverse needs of its student population while producing a workforce well equipped to react to the changing needs of our community.
