My hometown is Grand Rapids, MI. I am a recent (2010) graduate of Aquinas College, a small liberal arts college in Grand Rapids. I achieved a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Geography and an Associates degree in Business Administration. I have been interested in the outdoors since childhood. My father is an outdoorsman and would often take me on hunting and fishing trips. While at Aquinas my interest in conservation came to a head through my education in environmental studies and geography. In the final semester at Aquinas I learned of the SCA and was immediately intrigued and excited by the opportunities they offered. I have never done trail work before, but I am excited to be working outdoors and impacting people’s outdoor experience through sustainable trail building.
