I'm "Sputnik" when on trail. I NOBO'd the AT in '15 and the VT Long Trail in '18, and have now joined the ranks of the many Appalachian-bred hikers looking toward western trails. I'm a current restaurant cook, a hopeful future media professional, an avid lightweight backpacker, and a lover of Bananagrams. These days, I am most proud of my small-but-growing tarp collection.
