Nevada City, California
“I am excited to support other young women in having experiences in nature that both empower them, and lead them to become better stewards of the wild. I believe that direct experiences in nature are the best way to help people experience why these places need protecting.”
I'm an aspiring trail runner from Portland, OR, proving that middle age is just the beginning. Five years ago, a neck injury left me wondering if I'd ever hike again - now I'm training for my first 50K. When I'm not trail running, I'm backpacking with a multi-year goal of section hiking the PCT. From 9-5, I work in marketing for a global non-profit, but after hours and on weekends you'll find me on the trails encouraging other women to try hard things.
