Amanda Kriner

I'm a human searching for purpose in a world with too much going on. I'm passionate about slowing everything down and building a space for others to grow that will allow them to see their strengths, and I feel nature is a great springboard for that. I have felt and seen a lot of relaxation, connection, loss of self-conscious feelings, and improvement of self-worth happening when we commune with our world, and I want to create that for people, especially our next generation of little environmental stewards. I'm lucky to work at a nature center that allows me fantastic opportunities to bring students into nature to learn, write, hike, run, and be still when their hearts need it.
