I am from Lincoln, Nebraska, a place devoid of mountains and actual hiking trails. Despite this, I love exploring new trails with my dogs and spending all of my time outdoors in the summer. I grew up outside and even showed dairy goats at the county fair (so midwestern, I know). Because of this, I am studying environmental science with a hopeful minor in American Indian Studies. Along with the outdoors, I love reading fantasy books, learning about Greek mythology, listening to and creating music, and exploring new thrift stores and coffee shops.
