About Me
she/they
Before becoming a member of the GVL I worked as a professional routesetter, rock climber and coach spending my days outside among rock scatted around the globe. Nowadays, I spend most of the weekends and my free time in the Sierra. Throughout my undergraduate degree I worked in feline genetics studying coat morphology and color, disease and developing genetic tools for felidae.
