Louisa joined the team full-time in 2021 after participating in Semester 31 as a student and Semester 44 as an apprentice. Louisa grew up in Massachusetts, but after her time as a student at HMI knew she wanted to be out west. She attended Colorado College and received a degree in organismal biology and ecology, and lived in Denver before Leadville. Her favorite activities include skiing, mountain biking, running or hanging out by any water she can find in Colorado.
