Assistant Director
Rahn has been at CVU for 20 years; in the Fitness Center for 15 of those summers. For the last 13 years, Rahn has been a certified personal trainer through the National Strength and Conditioning Association.
By day, Rahn coordinates the Learning Center which provides academic support to all students, 9th through 12th grade, in all subjects.

Plus, it's just a ton o fun!!
