Our Team
Every tour is led by a current CU Boulder student. Here's who you could be walking with.
Tour Guides
Annie Chwalek
Tour Guide, Class of '29
I am a sophomore at CU Boulder studying Business with a minor in Political Science. I'm involved in the Leeds Scholars Program, junior chapter management team of Delta Gamma sorority, club field hockey, and several organizations within the Leeds School of Business.
Since coming to Boulder, I've found so many opportunities to grow, meet incredible people, and get involved both on campus and beyond. From academics to athletics to social life, I truly believe CU offers something for everyone.
With Tour The Hill, I'm excited to give future Buffs an authentic look at the Boulder experience and everything CU has to offer.
Nelson Cross
Tour Guide, Class of '28
I'm a Junior at CU Boulder studying Business Marketing with an emphasis in Business Analytics. I'm passionate about entrepreneurship, sales, and helping people feel confident about their college decisions through real, honest experiences.
Outside of school, I love fitness, running, and exploring everything Boulder has to offer from local food spots to hiking trails and campus life.
Boulder has pushed me to grow personally and professionally, and through Tour The Hill I want to help future Buffs experience the energy, culture, and opportunities that make CU so special.
Angelique Vuldy
Tour Guide, Class of '27
I'm a senior at CU Boulder studying Finance and Marketing. Around campus, I'm also a CU tour guide, a member of the Leeds Consulting Group, a part of the Leeds Diverse Scholars Program, as well as a Peer Innovation Coach, similar to a Teacher's Assistant, for a freshman business course.
Outside of academics and giving tours, I really love to spend time outside with friends, trying new restaurants around Boulder, and posting pictures of desserts I've baked on social media!
I truly love CU Boulder and am excited to show off everything that this beautiful university has to offer!
Annie Smith
Tour Guide, Class of '28
I am a sophomore at CU Boulder studying Economics with minors in Business and Public Health. I'm a CU tour guide, on the executive board of Alpha Phi Sorority, and involved in many campus clubs such as Women in Economics and Boulder Freeride.
I'm originally from Syracuse, New York and moved to Boulder to ski, hike, and explore a new part of the country.
I love being able to show off this beautiful place that I've been so lucky to explore and now live in!
Jack Herzog
Tour Guide, Class of '28
I'm a junior at CU Boulder studying finance and accounting, with strong interests in portfolio management and investment banking. I'm currently involved in both a social and business fraternity, along with organizations like the AI and IB club.
Outside the classroom, I love to play tennis, snowboard, run, and travel the world with my friends. I spend a lot of my free time currently studying for the Series 7 and 66 exams.
As a transfer, I felt like seeing the real Boulder was hard without understanding places like The Hill, Pearl Street, and how to get involved. With Tour The Hill, selling this place is easy!
Greg Hofstatter
Tour Guide, Class of '28
I'm a Junior studying Environmental Studies and History. I'm involved around campus as a CU tour guide, as part of the pre law advisory program, and serve as the Vice President of Phi Delta Theta. I also work as a research intern for CU's Heritage Center.
Outside of school, I enjoy skiing, fishing, and spending time outside. I'll also never say no to checking out a new place to eat.
Boulder is one of my favorite places on earth, and I'm excited to work with Tour The Hill to share everything that makes it special.
Spencer Henrichon
Tour Guide, Class of '28
I'm a Junior at CU Boulder studying Finance and Real Estate. Through experiences like being the Recruitment Chair of Theta Chi fraternity, I have found passion in learning new things, meeting new people, and empowering others to do the same.
In my free time, I enjoy golfing, skiing, hiking, fitness, and anything that gets me outside. CU Boulder has allowed me to grow both inside and outside the classroom.
As a transfer student, working with Tour the Hill is an incredible opportunity to show newcomers exactly why Boulder has been the perfect fit for me!
Trace Clement
Tour Guide, Class of '28
I'm a junior at CU Boulder studying Finance and Real Estate at the Leeds School of Business, and off campus I am the Recruitment Chairman for Theta Chi Fraternity.
I'm originally from Colorado Springs, and most of my free time goes to the outdoors: big game hunting, backcountry fly fishing, and backpacking. I'm also big on working out and running, and I love doing races when I get the chance.
I've been a Buffs fan my whole life. My family rooted for CU and my uncle played football here, so Folsom was part of my childhood long before I applied. With Tour The Hill, I'm excited to show future Buffs the real Boulder.
Elijah Horne
Tour Guide, Class of '29
I'm a sophomore at CU Boulder studying Environmental Studies with a minor in Business. I'm originally from Columbus, Ohio, and decided to come to Boulder for the incredible scenery, outdoor opportunities, and college atmosphere.
Outside of school, I enjoy playing lacrosse, golfing, skiing, traveling, and spending time with friends. I love meeting new people, exploring new places, and taking advantage of everything Colorado has to offer.
Coming from out of state, I know how important finding the right school is. I'm excited to be part of Tour The Hill and help prospective students experience what life in Boulder is like beyond the classroom!
Ethan Iver
Tour Guide, Class of '28
I'm a junior at CU Boulder studying Economics with a minor in Business. I came to CU as an engineering major, so I'm very familiar with the engineering program and happy to answer any questions about it. I'm also a member of Theta Chi, work on campus in the woodworking shop, and spent a semester abroad in Prague, which was an experience I'll never forget.
I'm originally from White Plains, New York. Outside of school, most of my free time goes to rock climbing, skiing, hiking, camping, and I try to get to the gym to lift whenever I can.
Coming back from Prague made me appreciate Boulder even more. There's really no place like it, and I'm excited to show future Buffs everything CU has to offer!
Matteo Buchbinder
Tour Guide, Class of '30
I'm a freshman in the Pre-Business program hoping to emphasize in Real Estate. I'm involved in the Real Estate Club and the AI Club here at CU Boulder. I look forward to rushing a business fraternity in the spring!
Outside of school, I love working out, going on hikes, being outside, and being active. I also really enjoy spending time with friends in whatever it is that I'm doing!
Founders
Liam Zirkle
Founder, Class of '26
I am a CU Boulder alum who studied Business with a focus in Finance and Real Estate. While at CU, I was on the executive board of Theta Chi Fraternity, a member of the AI and Sales Club, and part of CU's Free Ski and Free Ride programs.
Worked for Red Bull, skied in The Hill Jam, and ran the Boulderthon.
Boulder is where I've made lifelong friends, chased passions, and created unforgettable memories. With Tour The Hill, I want to show future Buffs the real Boulder experience.
Ben Chwalek
Founder, Class of '26
I am a CU Boulder alum who studied Business with a focus in Finance and Real Estate. While at CU, I was Vice President of the Financial Planning Club, involved in Greek life, and worked in the kitchen at Kappa Kappa Gamma.
Quickly realized how much happens outside the classroom. After living on The Hill and immersing myself, I found the parts of CU life that don't show up on campus tours.
A campus tour only shows about 25% of what life at CU is like. I want to help reveal the other 75% through real stories and student insights.
Parker Henrichon
Founder, Class of '26
I'm a CU Boulder alum who studied Business with a focus in Finance and Accounting. While at CU, I was a CU tour guide, a member of a professional business fraternity, and a volunteer with the CU Football equipment staff.
Being a tour guide has given me a deep appreciation for both CU's campus and the city of Boulder. Tour The Hill offers a unique way to share what student life is truly like beyond the classroom.
Since coming here, I've committed to sharing that same love for Boulder with others and Tour The Hill is the perfect way to do so.
