Paige Burhorn has secured her day to pay tribute to her favorite Denver Nuggets player Chris “Birdman” Andersen. Birdman is the 6′10″ center/power forward for the NBA’s Denver Nuggets and garners his nickname from the now famous wing tattoos on his inner biceps.

Paige graduated from CU with a BS in Psychology and a minor in Biology. She is currently attending CU working towards her Masters in Special Education. She interned at the Kempe Center in 2006 where she worked with battered and abused children.

Being Chris “Birdman” Andersen’s #1 Fan, Paige created Bird Sleeves which are nylon/spandex arm sleeves that slip easily over each arm and bear large Blue + Gold wings. She says Bird Sleeves act as a symbol, inspired from Birdman’s tattoos, and represent a fun and interactive way to support a player and team that is a testament to success through hard work and dedication. Bird Sleeves act as an example and were created in recognition of overcoming challenges, obstacles, and adversities in all aspects of life.
