Hi! My name's Ali and I'm from Hillsborough, New Jersey. I grew up spending summers camping along the east coast with my brother and parents, which kickstarted my passion for the great outdoors. I studied Dance and English at Muhlenberg College, earning my Bachelors and moving to Chicago in 2019 to pursue a professional dance career. In 2022, my boyfriend and I moved out west to chase the adventurous lifestyle, converting our Honda Element and living in Monterey, California. We moved up to Bellingham, Washington in 2023 and have been living here and loving it ever since. We can't WAIT to attempt our thru hike of the 2025 PCT and hope you'll follow along on our journey!
