Devils Backbone Chief Hiking Officer

[Rented World]

Greetings!

I have been an avid follower of the AT community since facilitating hikes with my old summer camp in 2014. I finally planned a Thru-Hike in 2020 but had to cancel plans for obvious reasons. This year, Devils Backbone Brewing Company is holding a video contest for somebody to represent their brand and create content during a 2021 Thru-Hike. I feel that many who applied are doing so for the right reasons. Having a platform on this scale enables a huge opportunity to promote the positive effects hiking can have on the soul. I promise if offered this position, to uphold the integrity of the Appalachian Trail and AT Community. Thanks for letting me share and I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts on this promotion.

Thanks so much! I was a Trip Director at my old summer camp and facilitated week long expeditions on the AT. At the Wilderness Boarding school I lead a couple hiking excursions. I've also been on some challenging day hikes but I've always had my eyes on thru-hiking.
