Annie Protzmann

My name is Annie and I am a NOBO AT thru-hiker starting on February 27th. I am 25 years old and grew up in New Hampshire and recently moved out of NYC back to NH to begin my thru hiking journey! I've been planning on a career change into the non-profit world since 2020 and I just left my job in the corporate world and am using this hike to do something adventurous and unconventional before jumping to a job right away! Please consider donating to my Hike for a Charity with Global Grassroots: https://app.etapestry.com/hosted/GlobalGrassroots/OnlineDonation.html
