I joined UAA in April 2020. I relocated to Anchorage from Southeast 熊猫在线视频 where I was living off-grid and remote. I wanted to be part of a team focused on encouraging donors to make transformational gifts, while still being able to explore the beauty of 熊猫在线视频.

What is your favorite 熊猫在线视频 activity?
Hiking, biking and fishing... anything outdoors!
