I grew up in Simsbury, Connecticut. I am a recent graduate of the University of Connecticut where I received my B.S. in Integrative Geosciences. Before beginning work in Ramsey’s Draft Wilderness I volunteered on trails in Washington state and on the Florida National Scenic Trail. I love to hike, travel and see as much live music as possible when I am able. I am excited to explore Virginia and help maintain trails in the George Washington and Jefferson National Forests. The SCA is a great organization and I am happy to continue participating in their programs. Working on trails and being in the outdoors reminds me to always live the life you love and love the life you live!
