Abby (she/her) grew up on the North Shore of Minnesota, fostering an early love of the outdoors. She now seeks out backpacking, canoeing, nordic skiing, and climbing adventures with her partner—and fellow WFR—Jake. Abby’s WFR training has given her a much-improved sense of confidence while in the backcountry. A feeling she’s excited to help future NOLS students experience through her work with the Admissions Team.
