Hi Everybody! My name is Skylar I live in Baltimore
Maryland, and just graduated from the Maryland Institute College of Art. After
having spent all winter cooped up in my studio sculpting I cannot wait to get
out on the road! I have been riding a bike for about as long as I have been
walking and I can’t think of a more fun and relaxing way to explore new places!
I am looking forward to seeing new sights, spending some time out in nature,
enjoying a good camp fire, and getting to share the experience!
Last year I spent all spring and summer working on an urban
farm in Baltimore. Part of my job while I was there was to work with the high
schoolers and other volunteers that came through the farm. So I spent a lot of
time encouraging people to try things that were new to them and got some good
practice in handling even the crabbiest, tiredest, and dirtiest of teens. Over
all it was a great summer and I loved helping people learn about where their
food comes from and how to help it grow. When I was in high school I took two
trips with Teen Treks, both of which were amazing. Most recently since then I
have hiked the Devils Path, a trail through the Catskill mountain range, and
taken a combination bike and train trip out west to New Mexico, Arizona, and
California. When I’m not out on an adventure (or finishing college!) I spend my
time, making artwork, enjoying music, reading, and farming.
