MY PURPOSE

My purpose in creating this blog is to make it easier for you to enjoy the state I love so much. I believe in the medically proven spiritual, emotional, and physical benefits of spending time in nature, and I want everyone to experience it.

MY CAREER

By trade, I’m a Physician Assistant. I practice Family & Sports Medicine, and train in Wilderness Medicine. I’ve practiced in Arizona and in the bush of Alaska. I’m very passionate about what I do and love keeping others safe outdoors.

THE OUTDOORS

In 2015, I was invited on my first hike in Arizona, after living in Wisconsin for my whole life. I fell in love. Since then, I’ve hiked at least once a week for years. I’ve found such joy in sharing my favorite places with others, which is why I’m here! Within the outdoor world, I love day trips, I love a mix of luxury and the basics, I love both short and challenging hikes, and I love camping- both in vans and tents. I like BALANCE.

MY HOBBIES

Outside of work and enjoying the outdoors, I enjoy taking care of my indoor and outdoor plants, weightlifting with my husband, and kissing my cute pup. I have a zest for life and can never find enough time to enjoy the entirety of it all.
