GROUNDED OUTDOOR

Grief & Trauma Therapist, Captain Fun, Foraging Coach

Logistics Lead, Yoga Instructor, Delight Coach 

I grew up in southern Oregon building forts in the forest and rafting the rivers.  My love of nature and the outdoors led me to nearly a decade of leading groups on wilderness trips in the high desert of Oregon, Yellowstone, and the North Cascades Nation. My passion for leading groups has taken many forms including a decade of teaching science and more recently wellness coaching, retreats and yoga.  I have found no other venue as powerful as wilderness for creating authentic connection and spiritual renewal. It is a great delight to serve as a guide to provide access to these wild and transformative places.

Head Canoe Coach, Technical Troubleshooter, Natural Historian, Professional Prankster

Raised in the Green Mountains of Vermont, schooled in the Blue Ridges of North Carolina, and putting down roots in the Pacific Northwest, I have always found ease in motion and calm in the wild. Working in the woods with teenagers and trail crews for over a decade, and organizing trips to special places via canoe, backpack, and bike have taught me the power of place, and the healing that wilderness travel can produce. I am excited to be able to help facilitate the work that can happen when we go outside together.
