Liliana RacineBoard Member
Liliana, her husband and son were first drawn to Telluride in 2015; they were able to make their dream to live in Telluride come true in 2022. While the beauty of the mountain landscape and outdoor activities played a big part, it was Telluride’s wonderful community that made this the best place they could ever dream of to become their full-time home. A good school is at the heart of a vibrant community, so Liliana has been actively involved in helping the Telluride School District in different capacities (as a volunteer, participating in accountability meetings, attending events, etc.). In 2024 she decided to get more involved and joined the board of the Telluride Education Foundation (TEF), focusing primarily on their grants and fundraising efforts.
Liliana was born and raised in Mexico City, she has worked in management consulting, finance, and technology companies for almost 20 years and has volunteered extensively for non-profit organizations that support education and the Hispanic community. Locally, she is also part of the Leadership Council for the Telluride Foundation and has been a mentor for two years for TVN’s Como Construir tu Negocio.

Julia MillanBoard Member
Julia moved to Telluride in 2010 and she has lived here full-time ever since. Originally from Mexico, she is raising her four young children in a bilingual home. She has worked in the Telluride School District. Julia currently works at Tri-County Health Network as the Bilingual Cultural Navigator and the Wilkinson public library and serves on the board for Karma Tutors, and One To One and is an active member of local coalitions Raices Sin Fronteras, Collaborative Action for Immigrants, and Communities that Care. She is a leader among the local latino community and is known for her passion in supporting the mental health and sense of belonging of all those who live and work here. In 2022, Julia was named Volunteer of the Year by the Telluride Foundation. She used this award to continue to serve the local immigrant community by founding the crisis fund, Fondo Unidos. Julia started Telluride’s first latina softball team, which has made an incredibly positive impact on the women participating and the league as a whole. You can find Julia at the CrossFit gym or at local events with her family.
