Why Are You Passionate About Trails and Serving WTF?

"I am extremely passionate about trails because they have shaped the course of my life. I grew up in Kentucky with trails that I could ride to from my house, and it is my goal to help create trails in our community that are accessible to everyone here in Wasatch County and beyond. Trails are an asset to everyone, giving people a place to connect with nature and the world around them and build confidence, making their lives better."
