Natalie gained a background in Geographic Information Sciences through her time studying at Texas State University. She helps bring the vision of Progressive Trail Design alive by combining her knowledge of GIS and love for mountain biking to create visually enticing maps unique to each project. She is passionate about the environment and finding ways to connect others to nature through outdoor recreation. When she is not making trail maps, she is often fantasizing about her glory days as a river guide or thinking about her next bikepacking trip.
