I am finally fulfilling my dream to climb Denali! What better way than with four incredible women on a beautiful route like the Muldrow Glacier. I have lived in Alaska all my life and began climbing almost five years ago. Since the first time I tied a figure eight, climbing has been a major part of my life, both for the enjoyment of it and for the strength it brings physically and mentally.

I learned to climb here in Alaska by taking mountaineering and rock climbing classes through the university. Since then, I have climbed all over southcentral Alaska in the Chugach and Talkeetna Mountains, California in the Sierra-Nevada Range and Yosemite National Park, Oregon in Smith Rock, and New Zealand. Two days before we fly out to begin our expedition, I will be walking across the stage and receiving my undergraduate degree in biological sciences. Someday I hope to work with a non-profit group helping to preserve endangered species, but that's a long way down the road.

This is my year to shine! In addition to climbing I also love to run and hope to complete a marathon for my first time this year as well. I have tremendous faith in our team and I know this will be an amazing experience. We will come back with a greater understanding of ourselves and be ready to conquer anything. Women rock!
