Georgia

Greetings from Canton an hour north of Atlanta. It’s great to be the GA State Leave No Trace Advocate. I was born in Connecticut but raised in Georgia and love the outdoors. I’m actively engaged in the Georgia Appalachian Trail Club and the Appalachian Trail Conservancy. I am a Leave No Trace Level 2 Instructor, a Trail Maintainer, and a Trail Ambassador all of which provide a great platform to discuss Leave No Trace Principles. I’m very passionate about teaching our youth about Leave No Trace and routinely conduct classes at all levels from Elementary through Graduate Schools.

As your State Advocate, my goals are to:

1. Broaden youth Leave No Trace awareness
2. Promote Leave No Trace to partner organizations through outreach & certification
3. Develop a robust list of Leave No Trace Level 1 and Level 2 Instructors that actively assist in providing Leave No Trace education
4. Identify gaps in Leave No Trace training and awareness across the state

I’ll assist you in any way I can and will respond to all inquiries as soon as possible. Let’s do this together!
