She has no shortage of courage… and adrenaline.
If rock climbing, BASE jumping, skydiving, and a plethora of other adventures weren’t enough, this adventurer is also a best-selling author, entrepreneur and public speaker. Her first book, “Journey of Heart,” told the story of losing her father and brother to an avalanche on Pakistans tallest mountain, K2, and her journey back there to try and recover their remains.
Her second book, "Changing Gears: Ups and Downs on the New Zealand Road" is the story of her soul-searching 28-day solo cycle across both of New Zealand's Islands. Later this year, she’ll be releasing her third book, “Dream of Flight,” a detailed look at her journey literally learning to fly using a wingsuit.
In addition to her literary success, she started a non-profit organization to support the creative needs of children called “The Denali Foundation,” named after her brother. Come listen to this amazing and inspiring woman.
