Hi! I have 2 boys who are around 5 and 1 - they keep me busy! I have a Ph.D. in Biological Sciences with an emphasis in ecology. My research for the last 10 years has been about connecting people to nature. I've also taught science (biology, nutrition, and chemistry) at the university level for over 10 years. During that time, I've also been involved with many community education initiatives.
I worked as an outdoor guide for 4 years, taking college students out on 3-4 day rock climbing and white water canoeing trips. During that time I had my Leave No Trace Trainer certification, a climbing certification through American Mountain Guides Association, and my Wilderness First Responder Certification. I have a lot of experience outdoors, with skill sets that range from the very simple to multi-pitch trad climbing, and I'm excited that I get to share some of these skills with you!
