Laurel is a self-proclaimed river rat and has been exploring the rivers all over the west since the age of three. She chose to work in Dinosaur National Monument on the Green and the Yampa with Adrift because she thinks that the Yampa is one of the most magical places on Earth. She loves being able to share one of the last wild and free places in the West with everyone who comes on the river with Adrift. She loves running rapids and making people feel more connected with water in general. On the river, she is guaranteed to always have a big smile, a costume and glitter for all involved, and a yerba mate in hand.
When Laurel isn’t at Adrift, she bounces between Colorado and California and explores new places during the off-season. She works as a ski instructor and loves playing on the frozen water that she gets to float on during the summer. She loves SUP-ing on new rivers, riding her mountain bike, checking out wildflowers, playing with her dog Daisy, and making yummy food with veggies from her garden. She loves combining her love for rivers with her love for conservation, recreation, and environmentalism
