    Owner

    Aloha, I am Renee Carson, and I am the proud Owner of the Pueblo and Cañon City offices.  I started my career with Express in 1988 as a temp, then soon after was hired as an internal staff member where eventually I found myself with the amazing opportunity to become partner, then majority owner.  The key to my business success has been an attitude of servitude.  I surround myself with the smartest and most giving people, this is a central component of my life.  I am well known for my positive outlook, helpful nature and love of Pueblo.

    Since I believe that if you do the right thing, good things happen I have had many accomplishments that bring me pride, I have volunteered with numerous organizations throughout the years, including the Latino and Greater Pueblo Chambers of commerce, Goodwill, Pueblo Community College Foundation and Colorado State University-Pueblo Career advisory board.  In 2019 I was inducted into the Pueblo Hall of Fame.

    Derrick Martinez

    Owner

    For those of you who may not know me,  I am Derrick Martinez and I am the Branch Manager and Franchise Partner for the Pueblo/Cañon City locations.  I grew up in the business but started my official career with Express in 2005 where I worked my way up from the front desk, recruiting desk, outside sales and management.  I am proud to share that I successfully executed several temporary assignments and completed one temp to hire opportunity prior to working inside the office.  Anyone who works with me may first share that I am the guy with the contagious laugh, but so you understand I truly love what I do and the team that I work with.

    I have had the pleasure of serving on many boards throughout the community, presently I am on the board for the Pueblo Chamber and Colorado State University of Pueblo School of Business Advisory.  When I am not in the office or on the golf course, I can be found spending time with my beautiful wife and four daughters… I know... four daughters!  All kidding aside, I enjoy helping people and I know that Express is the best resource available for our community.

    Kelsey Trujillo

    Professional Recruiter

    My name is Kelsey Trujillo and I became an Employment Specialist in August of 2020, and promoted to Certified Professional Recruiter in February 2023. A successful recruiter's desk involves interviewing, recruiting, sales calls, and dispatching;  all that has come naturally to me. The fact that I have the best professionals in the business as my mentors only work to my advantage.  The team and I partner with such a wide variety of client companies and job seekers with various backgrounds, that though I come from the medical field my previous experience is useful as I assist our employers and candidates.  Having a servant's heart and motivated to help others are qualities I have always possessed, as luck would have it, I have found an organization whose business model compliments these attributes.

    Some of my accomplishments include receiving my RMA, RPT, and EMT but also raising my two children and working in the women's field.  I am described by colleagues and clients as a cheerful, easygoing person with a steadfast work ethic.  If we haven't visited yet I hope to in the near future!  Feel free to email me with any employment or staffing needs.

    Hello there! I am Crystal Wetz and I'm an Employment Specialist for the Pueblo office.  With 30 years of restaurant management experience,  I took a leap of faith in September of 2019 and joined Express.  Shoot… I was nervous about the career change, but I hit the ground running and haven't looked back since.  In addition to a wealth of management knowledge, I'm also a graduate of the University of Phoenix.  Matching job seekers to good employers is rewarding.  A work-life balance is something I never thought was possible.  I mean… loving your job while still having time for family is like winning the lottery!

    With my can do attitude and multi-tasking abilities, my clients and work-family know that I will get the job done.  I have always been goal-oriented and driven which is why I began working by the age of 14, also, I was with my last employer for three decades, while raising my two children. I am a straight shooter… a sure bet.  I encourage anyone searching for a good job or a great employee to put our team to the test!

    Employment Specialist

    Hello! My name is Andrea Alvarez.  I am an Employment Specialist for our Pueblo office.  I joined the Express family back in 2006 where I started as the Front Office Coordinator and within less than a year became a Staffing Consultant who worked my way up to Senior Staffing Consultant over the years.  I was thankful to be a part of such an amazing team for 7 years.  In 2013 I decided to become a full-time mom and take care of my two boys.  The saying "time flies" stood true to its meaning.  Fast forward to 2021 eight years later and here I am back where I belong.  My passion in life is to help people succeed.  Being an Employment Specialist is not just putting people to work it's making a difference in someone's life.
