I help women find joy in the outdoors by teaching them how to hike, camp, and backpack.
I didn’t grow up outdoorsy. You couldn’t pay me enough to go outside. I thought camping was dumb because why would you sleep on the ground when you could sleep in your bed? Hiking and backpacking weren’t even on my radar.
During a hard year, I read the book Wild and it inspired me to try hiking as a way to calm my mind. Super cliche, I know, but it worked. Less than 12 hours after graduating from undergrad I moved to Colorado to pursue a life that was filled with outdoor adventures.
