I am a business owner, seasonal National Park Service Ranger and Mom who loves the outdoors. My family & I usually hike & bike more than 200 miles each summer. I look forward to exploring the Fort Collins Natural Areas with you and your family! So, let's get out there, learn something new & enjoy all that our natural areas have to teach us! As Walt Whitman said, " Keep your face always toward the sunshine - and shadows will fall behind you."

I hike, snowshoe, go birding, cross-country ski, bicycle, etc.and have been doing so for the 43 years that I have lived in Ft.Collins as ways to immerse myself in the natural beauty that surrounds us in the prairies, foothills, mountains, dark skies, rivers, etc. I enjoy capturing the beauty through my love of photography. I had the opportunity to serve on FTCCity Council when the Natural Areas program was evolving.So thankful that we continue to support funding for it!!
I have a passion for the outdoors and for stewardship of the environment. I love teaching and have been a Montessori teacher and an outdoor educator for years. I look forward to the opportunity to explore Fort Collins Natural Areas with you and to bring my ecological knowledge to the public and school programs!
