About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To not get to caught up in the serious parts of life.

ABOUT ME

Claire - I just got my master's in ecological teaching and learning and now we are hoping to move to the mountains! I love being outside, especially when backpacking or snowboarding. My pet peeves include people who chew with their mouths open and my dog Lucy's gas issues. I ride a bicycle most places and my scooter everywhere else.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is to live life with intention. It is something I am striving towards everyday. My experience with my masters program has opened up my eyes to what it truly means to live every day with intention and how important it is to make a difference in my own life as well as working on larger community goals.
Mark just taught me another piece of advice that his father gave him that I have been holding on to. There are few mistakes in life that are unrecoverable. It makes me feel better with so many big changes in our future.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
