About the host

Host profile image
Based in Cary, NC, I love active living and meaningful exploration. Whether playing racquetball, hiking, or diving into a great book, I constantly like to challenge my mind and body. My greatest joys center on family and the outdoors—we are avid campers and hikers and we climbed Mount Kilimanjaro together. Our travel style perfectly blends high-energy adventure with relaxing beach getaways. Next on our bucket list: exploring the pristine wildlife of the Galápagos Islands!
