Kyle McAlister

As Director of Enrollment Management at Trinidad State College, I am proud and honored to support students as they navigate their educational journeys.

I was raised in a military family—born in Alaska and growing up primarily in rural Pennsylvania. After attending college in Nashville, TN, I moved to Colorado immediately following graduation and have called it home ever since. My professional roots are deeply tied to student access and advocacy, having previously worked in remedial education, supported K-12 students with learning differences, and served with TRIO Upward Bound.

Outside of my work at TSC, I am heavily connected to Southern Colorado’s agricultural community. When I'm not on campus, you can usually find me & my wife working local farms & ranches or building toward our own small livestock operation on the high plains outside of Trinidad.
