"I believe in the transformative power of the outdoors. Everyone should have equitable access to the outdoors. By creating access to nature connection and outdoor adventure for all communities through education and mentorship, we can create spaces for teaching and learning that honor the land and build deep and lasting connections with nature. We all deserve opportunities to learn, practice, teach and thrive in outdoor communities that are diverse, equitable and inclusive. Safe and inclusive outdoor spaces build thriving communities rooted in trust, respect and empathy. The impacts of spending time outside for youth especially can change the trajectory of their lives and create pathways for leadership in social and environmental justice. I will share examples of my work with Young Women Who Crush, Rise Outside and Wild Earth."
