she/her

Welcome to Hikeology — trail stories, backcountry escapes, and honest gear reviews from the mountains, deserts, and coastlines of California and beyond. Based in SoCal, I share solo hikes, overnight backpacking trips (often with my adventure pup), and photo-driven itineraries that inspire exploration with confidence, curiosity, and a camera in hand. I’m new to the world of long-form video, but excited to bring you along for the ride -- wind, dust, detours and all.
