  • Description

    My name is Maggie and I have always wanted to explore the world, delve into new cultures, learn new languages, and incorporate all this into my love of nature. I am passionate about sustainability, the outdoors and sharing this love with others. I have worked in the outdoor field for nearly a decade. Some of these jobs have included working on a number of luxury dude ranches out west, working in children's programs outdoors, working as a zip line guide and other guided positions, as well as working in conservation.

    While working in conservation, I had the opportunity to work with my company to
    create a system to take all the food not used by the conservation teams in the field, and to bring this food to the local homeless shelter, as well as leading a donation drive for the homeless shelter. I am passionate about giving back to the community where I can and connecting with my community to bring about good where we can.
