On months where we have 5 Thursday, Boise Centennial uses that meeting to do club business instead of inviting a speaker from the community. We check in on our club goals and celebrate club members hard work. All are wellcome. 

Nikki Rae Cavalero grew up in Idaho in a great-American-blended family. She graduated from Boise High, then Boise State University and became a social studies teacher. With her naturally restless energy, she left Idaho for an adventure of work in a franchise company that guided her to Texas, Arizona, Colorado, India, and Washington DC over the course of 14 years. In that time, she met her partner and had two awesome kids. Nearly 10 years ago, Nikki and her family returned to Boise again.

Since, she worked with low-income students in a college access program, she returned to school to achieve a master’s degree in counseling, and is now a mental health therapist for St. Luke’s Behavioral Health.

In January, Nikki pursued Rotary to channel her desire to serve her community and connect with like-minded people.
