About Me

CURRENT MISSION

surround myself with great people, be outside as much as possible.

ABOUT ME

I like having silver bracelets around my wrists and being in the high alpine meadows or in sagebrush flats. I'm happy in the ocean, too. I am comfortable spending lengthy amounts of time alone, and thoroughly enjoy good company. I am a photographer and tend to take lots of photographs. (www.beccaskinner.com) Climbing runs in the family, so I often find myself on a trip for that sole purpose. I love having coffee in the backcountry.

PHILOSOPHY

My uncle said "You cannot lower the mountain, therefore you must elevate yourself."

"Go gently."- Cory Richards

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 11 years old, my first time away from home was on a 2 1/2 week backpacking trip through the Olympic mountain range. At 14 I planned a week long trip to Tijuana, Mexico to work at an orphanage. When I was 19, I spent the summer being a mountain guide. At 20 I left on my first large photo assignment to Indonesia.

We will see what other grand things my life holds for me.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: I know how to climb and take photos, if you want to learn, I would be more than willing.
Learn: About you, how you ended up where you are now, also, if you can play music, i would love to hear/collaborate!
Share: Experiences and food. I'm all about good food collaborations.
